Nosing 1-13/16"

This countertop nosing 1-13/16" measures 1.813" width by 1.062" thickness, requiring the use of a 2-1/16" wide blank of five-quarter lumber for machining on an industrial-grade molder.

The arc connects to a 9/32" wide horizontal fillet joined to a 5/16" radius quarter round and a 3/64" eased edge on the design's right side.
