So exactly how did Jude intend to create this ‘fence’ around the raft?

By using the same Hammering Charm to drive the poles through the wood. “Okay, Keigh. So… just use the Charm we used on the nails to get the poles through the planks like this…” The young man placed a pole at one end of the raft then cast the charm. The result was the pole sinking a few inches into both the planks. “We can space them out evenly but leave a small space in between each so that we don’t slip through.” Plus they could always transfigure more poles if needed. With his explanation out of the way, he continued with the task.

Now it was lucky for him that he hadn't since Keigh certainly would've smirked at him in honest satisfaction as only a younger sister could. But well.. then.. there was that. And the blue eyed Hufflepuff turned her head to stare at him in disbelief. "Excuse you! I'm incredibly light, thank you, very much!" she huffed at him in the most playful manner she could get out without laughing. Yes, she was light but not nearly as much as she had been years ago when she was younger.

With all of the poles finally made for their fence, Keigh was glad that Jude knew what they were doing because she didn't have a clue. This was definitely where she watched exactly what he was doing, surprised that the wood didn't splinter at all. "That's pretty cool. I can do that." Jude had nothing to worry about. Keigh got to her feet for this part and picked up a pole moving to the next spot on the raft and casting the charm upon it. They were going to be finished with their raft in no time at all!
