   So you want the sticking to look like a quarter-round, right?  If so, Amana makes three different sizes.

   Charles,

   The #99-270 set looks very close to what I'm trying to do.  Since it looks like you work at Freud, you might be the right guy to talk to!

   The immediate "problem" I see with the #99-270 set is that it seems to be designed for a material thickness of 1"; the sash I'm trying to make will be 1-3/8" thick.

   Would it be possible to put in a larger straight cutter and add/ resize the bearing(s) to allow machining of 1-3/8" stock?  Ultimately, what I'm looking for is a 1/4" x  9/16" glazing rabbet.

   Thanks for your help!

   The 99-270 as it ships will cut 1-1/8" thick stock and the rabbet it produces is 5mm X 12mm. It is possible to reconfigure the bits for a second pass in 1-3/8" stock but that would make the rabbet 5mm X ~19mm. I don't know of a smaller diameter bearing that would work. The stock bearings are 8mmID X 22mmOD.

   Charles,

   Thanks for the help.

   Since you work at Freud, perhaps you can pass this along to someone there: why don't they offer a window sash set with an ovolo?  (Something similar to the #99-050 / 051 ogee set, which I already own.)

   In older houses, it seems that the ovolo was used 95% of the time, so it'd be a great set to have when trying to match existing work.

   Thanks again.

   PS: Is Freud somehow related to Trend?  In the original image I posted, I couldn't help but notice the similarity in the font used.

   Thanks for the suggestion. I'll definitely pass it along to development.Trend is not related to Freud in any way that I am aware of.
