I'm looking to renovate a couple of garden benches by replacing the slats. These are wide benches so the standard kits of slats are not long enough.

I have some hardwood planks that are suitable but would need to have the edges rounded.


I can't believe nobody else has suggested it - Angle Grinder! In this case with a sanding disk. I find this combination a much-underrated woodworking tool, for outdoor woodwork at any rate.


Very useful, but entirely the wrong tool for rounding board edges. Unless you really don't give a dry brown thing how they look.
