Stylish rounded corner?

[Helios]

Hello,
I'm wondering how to make a nicely rounded corner on a countertop.

Suction cup, string, pencil, and jigsaw feel like one method, but the risk is that the sawing itself might not be very nice.

Some type of router with a radius tool or?
What tools are needed and how do you do it?

Thanks,
/H

Saw with a jigsaw a couple of millimeters outside the intended radius. Then router with the "radius tool" or whatever it is called. It actually works with anything you attach the router to, a piece of plywood screwed in place, a round bar in one of the holes for the guide, etc. If you route from the backside, you can screw the radius tool into the center of the radius; if you don't want holes on the underside, you can clamp a strip that you can screw into.

If the countertop is not mounted and not too large, you can stop by a carpentry shop, and they will surely help you for a small fee. If you don't have access to the tools for this, as Larsa suggests.
