Title: Where to find 3/4" Molding without the plastic "T" groove?
Post by: astroboysmame on August 30, 2006, 01:01:34 am

I would greatly appreciate if someone can direct me to where I can find 3/4" molding for an SNK cocktail cabinet - the molding on this cabinet does not have the plastic "groove" - it is just flat and appears to be stickered on to the table.

Would greatly appreciate where I can find this type of molding.  Thanks!  ???

Try using the term edgebanding for your search.  You should find many online sources.  Many different materials and adhesive options are available.  Wood grain and white melamine iron on edgebanding are available at most Home Depot stores in the US.  Typically it is wider than the stated size and must be trimmed down.  You will get the best results using a  router with a laminate trimming bit.  If you don't have a router inexpensive edging tools are available but I have never liked them that much.   Either way Practice on some scrap material first for best results.
