Welll... I don't know what to tell either of you...

but just an idea...  you could get white t-molding and use dye and dye it the color you wish...

this thread shows dyeing trigger sticks (http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=6056;start=0)

if you can't find it (the color t-molding you are looking for) maybe this is a viable option.. eh?

www.tapeease.com

They have a very dark green t-molding.  They send free samples, but their site is fairly hard to navigate.  The first time I tried to order samples I got nothing and no response.  I think I did it wrong as a couple weeks later I tried again and got an immediate response to my email and received samples a couple days later.  At any rate, I ordered my t-molding from them and received it promptly.  They seem like a perfectly solid company to me.

If I had to give it a name I would maybe say forest green.

edit:  Oh, sorry....they've got your blue too, by the way  ;)

I have an extra 20 feet of dark green. PM me if you want it. Just pay for the shipping.

 I bought some white from this guy for a DK cabinet, it got here quick and worked great.

Assume it's between 18' and 25'...but you better ask first.  Shipping starts at $6.00 there (they use UPS ground I think)

Perhaps its just the poor design, but it looks like there's a 100' - 250' minimum for all of their t-molding!

I don't know if this applies to their rolls of plastic T-molding, but even if it's a high minimum order it says the prices are per roll.  $50ish for 100' to 250' of T-molding would be an incredible deal.

The T-molding I purchased from them was sold in 12' lengths (it's solid metal) and I ordered four of them.  48' total, so no minimum was enforced there.  I asked about it and she said it would be fine to order only one of them.

The site really is attrocious.

So if you're going to buy 100', make sure its a color that others will be willing to purchase from you.  ;D
