Paver instalation on tight radius??
Im looking into replacing my concrete sidewalk with pavers. It is only 48sqft, but it needs to turn 90degrees in about 2ft on the inside corner. My current sidewalk has square corners, I would like to to have radius corners with the new walk. I saw some pavers at HD that I like, but they were not the traditional shape. They were larger and tumbled. I am affraid it would not look right to have sharp raidus with a larger paver. Would it not look right to have a cut edge next to a tumbled edge.
Any help on what I should do with a sidewalk with a radius?

Go to a real supplier. A landscaping supplier or in my area brick and masonary suppliers have pavers.
There are ones designed specifically for doing circles that come with a series of several different sizes for the tighter radius. And they have matching units for straight areas.
Don't know if you can buy a partial set or not.
Some paver lines have trapezoidal shaped pavers used for making a circular pattern around, say, a sculpture. They come with different angles, based on the radius. Each circle has a progressively more square shape paver as the radius increases. Perhaps you could use enough pavers for one quarter of a circle, omitting the ones for a radius smaller than 2', working your pattern from there.
