Is it possible to put a roundover edge on plywood using a router, or will it tear it up?

Will Titebond III stick to wood that's previously had a coat of linseed oil applied to it?

IMO, I would say NO to any brand wood glue, effecitvely adhering to wood that has been treated with linseed oil -- even after sanding. Oil penetration is too deep.

I'd first try the roundover bit on a scrap square piece of the same plywood you're going to use. Then check the results.

Since plywood is commonly used to stengthen beams, I would say the plywood would add greater strength.

PS: Obviously, I based my answer on a heavy load being in the bucket. In your photo's situation, it wouldn't matter. As it appears to be an empty bucket!
