Does anyone make 5/4 composite lumber thats not rounded off on the corners.
I need some 5/4 by 6 inch material to replace my cornerboards. I want
something that will not rot ever again.
In my last house I used redwood but I can no longer get that either.

What about vinyl? Lots of styles and colors for all sorts of trim
work:

How about Hardee plank for the cornerboards, never have to replace
again!

You should be able to special-order the plastic composites.

I recommend, however, the fiber-cement products, like Hardy.

That was my first thought but I cant find 5/4 X 6 material.
