Where to find router bit with this profile

[cody michael]

I bought this trim from home depot and want to make a piece with a curve and same profile (to go around around entry way)

[Robert Engel]

Mulitiform bits are available at most of the many companies that sell router bits.

You may have a hard time duplicating that profile outside having it custom made.

[Tom M King]

See if you can find a flexible molding online that matches the profile, or has one similar that you can change that whole room to. Getting a custom bit made to match that will cost around $300. If you want to go the custom bit route, let me know, and I will give you the contact information to the company. Whiteside used to make one offs, but now only make custom bits in multiples of six.

You might be able to have a vertical profile bit made, as that would not appear to be something "standard".
That profile was most likely made on a moulding machine of some type.

It's hard to tell from the pic, but look here to see if one would work. Frequently, you can use 2 or 3 routers bits to get the final profile you want.

Just buy a bit that's close, and make it all with that bit. Baseboard doesn't have to be in one piece. Just make a cap for all of it, and not use the stock, one piece stuff.

get twice the baseboard you need cut the profile off with some extra then rip the thickness down to bendable thickness lets say 1/8" make laminate the parts back on the wall with glue and nails

or depending on your radius soak the trim in water tor a day or two

or that profile I have seen in mdf trim moisten with water and bend

Do you know anyone with a williams and hussey / shopfox / Bellsaw moulder? Knives to match that profile should be under $150.. unless you mean radius and not an arch, in which case do you know anyone with a shaper? Same $ for knives

+1, over the years we have replicated many,many shapes using multiple router bits in our router table, Also depends on how much you need? 20, 40, 150 feet would make the difference. CGG Schmidt in New Jersey works for us if you are running alot of the shape.

That's just standard base cap. All flexible molding companies will sell that profile. Kerf bend the 1x4 or whatever the base is and cap it with the flex. Why would you want to make more work for yourself?

$64 for 12' foot of base cap
WOW!

$64 for 12' foot of base cap
WOW!

Cheap! Considering what you'll pay if you make the curved moldings yourself.

Cody,

It looks like the same base i have. I bought the Whiteside "specialty moulding" bit #3326. It worked perfect. Check it out on there website.
