Hey guys, need your help. What is the best way to duplicate the molding in the middle of the doors on this credenza?

They also have great prices on smaller...

Welcome Roger, thanks for your contribution to this great forum. Nice shop and excellent work.

I think I will take good...
Let me back up a little, I wasn't thinking of sawing my own logs to cut to boards, but rather buying 4/4 lumber from my local saw mill, cutting them to length and width and running them on my shaper...

Is it more expensive to make your own boards and then cutting the tongue and grooves on a shaper than buying from a retailer?
I'm...

It seems that the metal slides take away from the overall look of a very nice piece of furniture.
All wood construction just looks more authentic, especially with great joinery throughout the...

Wanted to find out your opinions on the WoodRat. They seem to be making a concerted push here in the states now.
I haven't seen a bad review of this thing yet (all glowing reviews), but...
Wow, with the prices on the router lifts and a new router to be mounted in the table you could easily afford a shaper and get the precision you may be looking for and the power in one throw.
