    Plant Border

    Last week I asked about which blade is best for ripping some treated 4x4 lumber. We have a problem with dogs and also birds kicking out the pine straw mulch onto the sidewalk. The pics show my remedy. I had to make quite a few relief cuts in order to bend the boards around the curves. But it worked. Now we sweep the walkway much less.

    Thanks,
    Glenn

        I agree with both of the above, good idea and good looking too.

          Looks real nice and just in time. I spent the day bagging pollen with my mower. About half went in the rear bag and the other half just hung on my dust mask from teh shop I wore. The filters were white when I started and they were greenish yellow when I finished. It's magic..

            Glenn,

            Nice job. The project turned out nicely. That's a lot of deep relief cuts to make. I'd be afraid of one of the boards snapping when the bending happens. Looks like this wasn't a problem.
