Explanation:
Si l'on utilise des bouvets pour créer des rainures dans le bois, on peut imaginer que les pièces de bois concernées peuvent être rectangulaires, carrées..voire rondes.
Le terme round length peut donc correspondre simplement à diameter/diamètre (ou pourquoi pas une "portion" de diamètre déterminée afin de préparer l'outil pour la création de la rainure sur une pièce de bois ronde).

disagree  SafeTex: I'm already not sure of this and I've posted a reference from the same company. But if round length were to mean anything like what you say, it would be "circumference".
