attaching tmolding to badly routed grooves
krick:
Just a warning... nails on the edge of MDF are not a good idea.
cbmeeks:
I've haven't had good luck with hot-glue and t-molding.
My telescope base is a wooden circle with t-molding around the base. It started coming off and I hot-glued it...didn't work too well.
but maybe I just had some cheap glue.

The Jerk:
I recently used the hot glue method on my cab because of two bad spots. Seemed to work quite well.
cholin:
Depends how big the gap is though. You could go with bigger T-molding, or do the good old hot-glue as many people suggested. An alternative would be to fill the slot with glue and cut off the T part of the T-molding so that its just a semi circle, then glue or nail that in. Stick with the glue though, and because you messed up, dont go for cheap stuff. Buy something thats proven to work.
solfood:
I did the same thing. Hot glue totally worked.
I like to think of this first project as my beginners course in woodworking/computer building/software configuration. There are SO many things I'll do differently next time. And to everyone else that has never done this that sees and plays with the cabinet "Man, this thing is PERFECT...It looks JUST like the one in the arcade....Can I buy one of these??"
