I'm creating an edging for my raised garden with sleepers. However, a few of the angles are greater than 90 degrees, so am going to have to mitre some of the cuts. That's not my worry (although I can see it being hard work cutting by hand!)
I'd like to ask what the best way is (aesthetically and simplicity wise) of joining them? I'm guessing the right angles are simple and neat enough to fix with coach screws, but with joins larger than right angles, driving coach screws at angles would look messy?!
That said, do they really need to be joined together? Would it work (look and practicability wise) if I just get some steel stakes and peg behind each sleeper just before the mitre join?
Any advice would be most welcome, ta!
