   Off the top of my head one of the manufacturers that comes to mind is Mikron.

   I'm in the market for a molder too so I"m doing some research too as soon

   as I recall the other names I post them too.

   Thanks for the info on the Mikron molder. That's what I was looking for. I sent for some information and prices. You indicated you were also looking for a similar machine. If I find anything interesting on my quest for a curved molding molder, I'll let you know.

   Thanks again - Tom

   Someone else suggested it also but the moulder that we have in our shop is a Mikkron, model #645 Multi Moulder, Renfrew Ontario,Canada, 1-800-496-4589

   We use it for all curved casing and even curved crown mouldings on some occasions, great machine, has some nuances that practice and a little trial and error will help get you through. Better have a good dust collector though because it hogs off  quite a bit of wood on some of the mouldings.

   Stegher makes an excellent but spendy horizontal moulder with feed for doing work just like the Mikron. Don't know how the prices compare, but I do know some folks who used to use a Stegher and thought it was great. You might give it a look see. wb
