BEADING PROFILE

CLASSICAL OGEE

The drawings you see here show tlx* fence in its final position. But to get the best results, you'll want to cut the profile by making several shallow passes instead of one deep cut.

And to minimize the time you spend at the router table, for some profiles it's a good idea to start by removing any excess material with the table saw. Tine drawing below shows how I did this for the final profile shown at left.

Design Your Own

Coming up with your own profiles using a bit like this can be a challenge. To help drive the creative juices, I made a template out of a cutoff from a piece of scrap I routed to the full depth and height of the profile, as in the photo at right.

Using the template as a guide, you can make just about any profile you can draw, just keep in mind where the "waste" areas are, the location of the bearing, and most importantly, the need for adequate stock support.
