| T-molding around *ENTIRE* side? |
| << < (3/4) > >> |
| Mysterioii:
My t-molding only wraps around to the underside by a few inches. It's sitting on carpet too, and I had found some of the teflon-style sliders (not felt or carpet-like) that were narrow strips about 3 inches long and just about 3/4" wide. Adhesive backed, think I probably got them at Home depot (7 years ago). I think I put 3 or 4 of them on each side, you can barely see them even if you know to look for them and the whole cab slides pretty well on the carpet. |

Thanks guys. In the melee, I *did* order another 20 feet of t-molding from arcademolding.com (free member plug...*KAPOW*!!). But, my "I've got all the toys" neighbor's been sniffing around asking about a bartop, so I may just build him one out of an old PC and 15" LCD I have laying around. :afro: :afro: Like I said, I used 3 parts wood glue, 1 part water and "painted" all of the exposed edges right after cutting/machining. When that was dry, 100 grit paper could BARELY smooth it down, it was so hard. So, I'm not too worried. I'm also doing black/black, so it won't be noticed. I'm more worried about moving it than the t-molding anyway. I have to go down the hill around the house and in through a 33" door. So, I'll have to take it apart anyway. Looks like I'll have to borrow a hand-truck from someone... Again...thanks for the help. It puts my mind at ease. AJ |

My main machine has large metal L shaped strips along the side panels, painted the same and doesn't detract from the visual in any way. They came with the machine from an arcade. |

These look like the same sliders I used... Looks like they're 25mm wide so just about an inch. If you're gonna put your cab on carpet and don't have wheels/casters under it I really recommend something like this... it stays very stationary, it's not like it's sliding around all over the place. But when you WANT it to move, it's much easier. http://www.wizardsliders.com/en/ProductsView.asp?ID=11&SortID=1 |

If you would have laminated your cabinet I would be worried about T-molding on the bottom. I moved mine before putting T-molding on and caused a small chip in the corner. :banghead: With paint I wouldn't give it a second thought at this point. If something does get chipped you can easily touch it up and it will never be noticed. |
