Folks,

Does anyone know how the molded edge was made around lipped drawer fronts on period furniture. I Have seen many molding planes over the years, but never one that really suits the profile. Its usaually a flattened roundover or elliptical shape with a fillet or step. 1/4 round isn't quite right and generally not found that small, and there is no integral fence. Perhaps they were scraped-in?

Thanks for any help.

Hi Dan,

Search the Forum Archive located to the left of the toolbar at the top of this page. There was a similar thread started by glreynolds on 03/31/06 or just click here http://sapfm.org/archive/index.php?topic_id=1346. Hopefully you will find your answer in there somewhere.

Best of luck
