I need to apply a cherry panel molding around a bar under the granite bar top. There are six 2.5" x .5" steel supports around the bar supporting the top, four in the front and two on the sides. I need to notch the panel molding for the steel supports. I could nibble out the notch with the chop saw and then chisel out the rest but would like this to be a fairly decent fit. Any suggestions on how to do this? Thanks!
