I was looking at purchasing an edger for my concrete project and noticed that edgers come in various radiuses. They start at 1/8" and go up to 1". Does anyone have any comment why you would use a particular radius over another?
Thanks.

The ones we buy are 3/8 or 1/2 inch radius. They are enough, but not too much. We have a 1" that we use on curbs only. Another thing to look for (if you plan on slicking the edges after texturing the concrete) is the edgers with the flat ends as opposed to the ones where the ends turn up slightly. I HATE the upturned ones. Good luck.
