Hi,
Designing a shed / potting shed / summer house and the client (my wife ) would like a curved wall on one side. The curve will be fairly uniform along the length (about 10' (3m)) of the shed and the offset from the ends of the boards will be about 8-12" (20-30 cm)
We haven't decided on a material yet.
Most of the info I've found so far relates to bending quite sharp curves in short pieces of wood.
Does anyone know if pre-cut profiled cladding will be flexible enough if soaked (hot water?) or steamed or should I be thinking about sourcing some green timber (variety?)?
ANY constructive (no pun intended) comments appreciated.
Thanks
