Is t-molding a must?
ginno:
I'd go with T moulding for the arcade feel, better protection then the painted surface which can easily dint / scratch. Also you will end up with a more vibrant color then you would with paint.
I painted the rounded edges of my cabinet, below is a few pics of how it came out if your interested in the type of results you can achieve
cheers..

One more question as I've been presuaded to go the tmolding route. I know what the router bit is but what is a arbor? I'm sure he knows but I'm curious myself.
Havok:
There are two pieces: the bit, which is the thing that does the cutting, and the threaded post it connects to, which attaches to the router. Here's a picture:

Double post - nothing to see here. Move along...

last question, the bit does the cutting, so do you have to have a special type of arbor that matches that bit, or does the arbor work for a variety of bits?
