Nintendo Tmolding question
« on: September 18, 2012, 01:48:10 PM »
Has anyone used the Nintendo flat T-molding from www.t-molding.com ?
What i would love to know is what thickness blade is nescesarry to cut the slot for the molding. The Tmolding comes from the US and they use 7/64 inch which comes down to about 2,8mm. I went to check local hardware stores and i can get either 2,5mm or 3mm blades to cut the slot...
I presume that 2,5 will do the job?

yeah jinxz, you should use the true flat T-molding, it´s authentic to the original T-molding used on for instance DK cabs. Your cab will look so much better with it. Can you tell us something more about your cab, are you really making one from scratch?  :)  Will it be a donkey Kong, or another Nintendo game?
