where to get composite moldings

[aaron allen]

In the past, I would get these moldings ( like egg and dart ) made of some sort of composite material. We would steam them and apply them to a rabbeted area. We also used to get a extensive grape leaf arrangement and apply it to a valance of sorts. They could be made of a resin compound also. Does anybody know of the source for these and other architectural embellishment? I haven't released the secret adhesive yet, maybe its common knowledge. If you ask me I'll tell you though. When I was in the shops making cabinetry, they hand you stuff and you apply it. I should have keep track of the supplier, but didn't. Thanks

Local lumber yards?

Thanks Tod, I have known of 'uncle' Raymond for awhile, most of what he carries is made of real wood. I did search for some of my requirements, but they were made of real wood.

Thanks Scott, your link to old house web showed me I should have used the term "ornamental moldings" in my search. I found a couple of sources, but not the one from the past. oh well, I'll bet its a small company under our radar.
