Title: 18mm T Molding?
Post by: s_busby_uk on March 30, 2014, 01:15:08 pm

If I'm using 18mm MDF (because 19mm isn't readily available in the UK from what I can tell), then which T-molding size should I use? 3/4"? Because that's 19mm. Does that extra mm make a bit of difference or should I go for something else? Can you get 18mm thick T molding??

Thanks!

There are many ways to trim t-molding.

Looks like a one-sided edge-band trimming tool similar to the two-sided one BobA discussed here (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,132413.0.html).
