centering slot bit for tmolding

Pages: << < (2/3) > >>

JustMichael:

The simple way to center the slot is to cut the slot in the wood then flip the wood upside down and recut the slot.  This will center the slot perfectly.

Popcorrin:

People that use laminate, do you apply laminate first and then cut your t-molding slot or do you cut your t-molding slot first and try to adjust for the thickness of the t-molding?  I can think of pros and cons of doing it both ways.

hulkster:

this may not have been the best way to do it, but i just got out my ruler and measured the center of my mdf and marked it.  then i lined it up on my router and cut away.  it looks like the center after i measured the cut, but i havent put in the tmolding yet so we'll see if im right!

bdsjake:

good ideas everyone, thanks!

GadgetGeek:

I've used plywood and you can just eyeball the layers to see if you are centered or not.
