20' of brand new 5/8" red T-molding for sale
(1/2) > >>

I got some T-molding (http://t-molding.com/store/product.php?productid=40&cat=17&page=1) to spiff up my X-Arcade trackball unit, but it turns out that they use funky T-molding that has a much wider slot.  The stuff I just got from t-molding.com doesn't stick in--not even close.  :[

So, I paid $15.36, including shipping, for 20' of 5/8" red T-molding.  Anybody want to buy it?  I'd like to break even, but I'll entertain offers.

Thanks,
-Jason

Not to deter from your BST offer, but did you considder running a bead of hot glue along the groove?

Hmm--interesting idea--no, I hadn't tried that.  I did consider jamming something in there to help fill up the gap (thin cardboard, cloth, etc.) but I didn't think I'd get the same "grab" that the little tines/barbs on the backside of the T-molding get.

Is the hot glue trick a tried & true hack?

Thanks,

Oh it will definitely work. And the best part is the t-molding will still be removable.

I've used it several times with good results.

Example:
To myself:  "I know I can get these last two lengths cut with this dull  slot cutter!"

...after the cuts are done...

"Opps, looks like I just used a wood burning blade to cut the slots:  :)
