Although your problem calls for a slightly different solution then what
I have to offer, here is an mockup for a heavy duty fence that I am

a solid wall of tan bricks.

As Tom said, I would go with a combination of 2x2-2x2 brackets (there
should be a lot in brown available on brickbay from the droid fighters)
and plain plates.
