Could someone possibly tell me out of what's on this site what I need to get?

I'd recommend the four flute cutter.  The ball bearing guide would be a good idea to keep the cut depth even and help your run the router along the edge.  Just my opinion - I've only used routers a few times.

Craig:
ROMbler, with using your Dremel, was the cutter thickness wide enough to push the t-mold in? Looking at the Dremel site, the cutter looks very thin.

How much did you pay for the router attachment and a cutter?

ROMbler:
the thickness is perfect for molding - nice tight fit- I had the same worry.  I don't remember exactly what I paid... I'm thinking ~$30 for the attachment and ~$18 for a package of three cutting disks from Lowes.

tcheat:
www.tmolding.com has molding and router bits. 

A nice trick I picked up from someone on this site is to route the groove and then flip the piece over and route it from the opposite side.  That gives you a perfectly centered molding.

Good luck.

Craig:
Thanks tcheat. Didn't realise they had the bits. I will order it there when I get my tmold from them.

Cheers
