I need a router bit

[30WCF]

It needs to be reversed from this one but I can’t seem to find one.

It fits my wall boards, and I could cut the tongue out of the excess part of the longer sweeping area, and it would be a darn near exact match. EXCEPT, it’s oriented the wrong way.
If I just move the design to the other side of the board, I can’t trim off the excess sweep, and the profiles don’t match and it would be about 3/8” wider than its neighbors.

That is interesting. I have a router, but never ran into this issue. I wonder how they are made? Can you take one apart? I guess you already thought through the upside down mounting ect and that is a no go.

This seems to be a one piece. The tongue and groove ones you can take apart. This one is solid.

I could strip out 1-3/4” sections and router that, then make both sides of the narrow, decorative strip male, and have the wide blanks be female on both sides. Lotta work and lotta extra joints.

Can you rout a piece and then join another to it?

You can get custom bits made for shapers and routers, but that’s expensive.

If you know who made it, maybe they have the opposite profile or wouldn’t be against making one.

Thats why I’m thinking now. Make a narrow strip and mill it out to be male on both ends and join it to the flats.

It’s an Amazon special that looks to have lots of different brands selling the same profile and paint colors with different names on it.
This particular one is branded WSOOX. Pretty sure I know where that gibberish was originated.

This is getting over my head, most of my routering was just rounding edges.

You might check out the router bits here to see if one of the architectural molding options would work...

No luck on those sites.

Do you have a lumber mill around that makes trim? I had one where I lived before. They could create any moldings to match the stuff used in older homes.

I’m not sure. I’ll look around.
