old fashioned rounded T&G

[Pecker]

Evening all, i've got to replicate a couple of old tongue and groove doors.
They have the old fashioned 'pencil' or 'P' round on one side of the join, creating that old curved type to each joint. can anybody point me in the direction of a cutter for either router or Spindle moulder please.

It would help if I actually knew the correct name for it! LOL

many thanks all
Woody

Methinks you speak of the "bead"? Dunno - I use a plane.

Cheers, Alf

Most dealers that sell router bits will stock bead cutters. It all depends on what size bead you want, and if they are half or corner beads.

There are plenty of bead cutters about but they all have the same fault if you are doing trad stuff; that is, a too chunky quirk. The alternatives are a scratch stock, modified off-the-shelf cutter, or my solution is DIY spindle cutters - which frees you to copy anything absolutely accurately.
