I think that's how it's spelled. In paintings of a garden Monet had these little foot bridges. They arc up over a little pond. I have a pressure treated 12 foot flat bridge over a gully now and would like to replace it. Question is if I take a 1x12, tack a Batton on it to describe a 12" arc will that arc be sufficient to make a visual impression? Also if it is, can I just cut the handrails to that same arc or do I need to bend them into that arc. It will not get much foot traffic. Mainly decorative but does need to perform a bridge function.
