What a good idea. Don't know why I didn't think of that myself., and
it
would be a fun project.
Any advice as to what wood/what tools I'd need? I've got a jigsaw, so
I
should be able to cut an arch shape, but what would I use to round
the
edges with? I want it to look reasonably well done since it will be
in
a very prominent position.
Thanks for any advice.
I think a router would be the clear winner, but failing that one could
simply sand it to get smooth results, with rather more work.
A square base plate could be sawn, a round one could be made on a
drill, using it as a lathe, with an angle grinder as the cutting tool.
What tools have you got? Out of router, plane, sanders, lathe, etc? Do
you want round section or square?
