I'll bet you could build a pretty good stockade fence with just the Poser basic cylinder. Line up about 6 cylinders to make a section; apply a Wave to two or three, to make a little warp or wiggle in the logs; then export the whole set as one OBJ. (A Wave can also produce a nice point on the end of the log, if you set it up right. Just fiddle for a while, especially using the Rotate parameters on the Wave.) Use UVmapper to apply a texture to the OBJ, then import it repeatedly to form a stockade. If the sections still look too much alike, add a Wave to some of them again.

Have you tried George279 (A.K.A. Zippy) website? I recall that he had a criss-cross log fence on one of his websites - here is a link to his older site, sorry I could not find the link to his other site though.
