Quick question about T-Molding

Pages: << < (2/5) > >>

I put T Molding on the bottom, although my cab is on caster wheels.  It wasn't much extra work or molding, so why not.  It just looks a little cleaner and offers a bit of extra protection to the MDF from nicks and gashes.

wrench:

I did the back and bottom edges of my cab.Not really for looks but for the extra protection from anything catching the edge of my laminate and causing damage .

Excretious:

WRENCH, by no means do i wish to hijack this thread but please tell me how you did your paint job.  I am painting my cabinet at the moment and want my black to turn out like yours.

I think he has laminate.

Allright after "perfecting" my routing skills on scrap wood  :) I have to say my 3/32" from www.mlcswoodworking.com either stinks or I'm doing something wrong. The T-molding just slides right in. There is no compression or need for a mallet. (Which means it just falls out) I have quadruple checked that the blade is spinning the correct way. Could I be doing something wrong or am I going to have the glue the whole thing? Oh this T-molding is from T-molding.com

Also does the T-molding get installed where the CP rests or do I just meet it and then pick up again once the monitor angle begins?

Thanks everyone for helping a Newbie!

I think the conventional wisdom is to use a 1/16" slot cutter for the t-molding.  There's probably a few different ways to proceed, some sort of glue being one of them.
