As far as the length of you rail is concernt, that one is simple. Make a profile cut on a scrap piece of wood and measure the profile. Take a measurement of what the finished product should be. Take the total width of that and subtract the width of one stile times two. This will give you the length of your rails without the profile. Now, after you know the width of your profile from the srape piece mentiond above, take that, double it and add that to your rail length. This will give you the length of your rail before your profile it. Hope this helps
