Hi, Does anybody know where I can buy a wood router bit with this profile, or very close to this profile? Or does somebody have one to sell me or that I can borrow? I have a 3' and 6' section of baseboard I need to make to match our current stuff.  Wood is 3/4" thick. Thank you

pics in post below

Your picture doesn't show for me.

You could try a quality wood shop, they might already have the profile you want and will run off a small amount for you.

Also, some profiles are actually a combination of two or more bits.

Good luck.

Yep.

The pic doesn't come up for me either




If you can't find something close, or, it needs to be perfect, there are companies that could make one for you. I don't any names for you though.

Can't see your pic but try here, if they don't have it I don't know who would.

Timber Woodworking Machinery located just down the road from me, might have something for you.

Your picture is not showing but if it is an older home, sometimes a shop specializing in custom mill runs will have a moulding that the local big box store won't have. Try a search for specialty mouldings in your area, it might be easier and cheaper to buy an eight foot stick than trying to make a piece. I have knives ground for historical reproduction mouldings, but that is a bit pricy for a single stick.

Rocker Woodworking should have it.  White (brand) of router bits would have it also (google them).  Your picture is not showing so I am making a little bit of an assumption.

I'm pretty sure you can't link to a picture in dropbox to display it here.  Save the pic to photobucket or our Photostash or a similar service, then link to it.

can you use a round over bit and a cove bit and make three passes?

That looks like window stool not base. Try MLCS.com for a profile. Two passes and two bits likely unless you have a router table to run bullnose.

Or maybe a round-over and an ogee?

You may need to use two different radius bits for that one and a router table. A round over bit and a radius or make 3 cuts with two radius bits. Easy enough to do. Good luck
