Take a look at CR Laurence's site. They have just about everything for
glazing, and probably have trim as well. http://www.crlaurence.com "Jim Bailey" wrote in message . .. Thanks PC. I'd actually thought about that - cutting from a solid piece. Unfortunately I really don't have the necessary tools around to do it right now e.g. a router (probably a lot easier on a router table actually)., but I'll certainly give that some more thought. Also, I had somone else respond (see the new thread 'Jim's Hatteras'), requesting better pics and I[m goiing to try to do that tomorrow or Sunday. Maybe you can see it a little better then, and see the new windows - maybe generate other ideas ? jim bailey "P.C. Ford" wrote in message ...

I now have a lip, approx 1/4 - 3/8" around the inside edge (inside the salon) that I need to trim out. If it were all straight, some simple "L" shaped wood molding would be fine but I have a couple of radiuses to deal with - the photos below should help you envision what I mean- the problem areas a I'm not sure how to deal with this. Any ideas ? Any source for a molding that might be flexible enough for this job ? You have to cut the corner pieces to fit. First get a chunk of wood long enough for corner. Should be flat grain. Cut the outer edge to fit. At this stage you can do several attempts to try and fit. You might try to get a tracing of corner by tape a piece of paper to corner region and rubbing with a pencil. In your case you would add the "leg" of the L. Cut that rabbet with router or shaper. When the fit is perfect on the outer edge, cut the inner edge. Obviously the piece is now very fragile; thus the requirement for flat grain. Radius the corner as required. These instructions are minimal, I know, but they should be sufficient to suggest the method. Nice boat, by the way. Regards, pcf |
