Is there an online reference catalog for the moulding profiles used for the millwork in homes during the arts and crafts era? I'm primarily trying to find a reference for all of the mouldings, e.g. door casing, base, crown, window, etc., that match the particular arts and crafts style.
I'm considering milling the simpler parts, i.e. door casing and base, myself as this may not be more than a router bit (chamfer, bullnose, etc.) or two to create the profile I'm looking for--clean, simple lines. Is MDF a good product to use for these applications, say compared to poplar? This will obviously be painted but I'm just concerned with the durability of MDF vs. poplar.
Thanks in advance,
Brett
