Cathy, you can split pvc pipe in half leangthwise. Jim uses the table saw to split it easily. You could use the split pipe as a mold for a fine sand/portland mud mix or, if you don't want to have to worry about smoothness, just leave the pipe in place and paint over it. I am about to do something like that to the edge of an old wooden planter to avoid problems with splinters. I'll ask Jim to toss in some pics as that project progresses.

I lined the interior of the wood planter with old plastic sheeting from the little greenhouse I use to protect my citrus and banana trees in winter. Wood projects don't last very long in our high humidity so I'm always trying things that, I hope, will extend their life.
