1/8" Radius Edge - 25

This double-radius edge 1/8" - 25 measures 2.250" wide by random thickness, requiring the use of a 2-1/2" wide blank of various thickness lumber for milling on an industrial molder. The knives are capable of milling two 1/8" round-overs on two top or bottom, or left & right edges of a piece of lumber measuring 2-1/4" width. The acrylic template can be moved over and referenced to either side of the profile knife grinder to manufacture a set of knives for any cutter heads on the machine. This action will enable all four corners of the lumber to get milled simultaneously. Suppose you want to cut the edges of the lumber from the right and left vertical cutter heads to mill random widths; we have other patterns to accomplish this.

Thinking about possibly building an enclosed tool room for the profile knife grinder, template making machine, and a place to store all your acrylic patterns and knives? Please read our commentary on securing a profile knife grinder before moving; this small, simple task can save you thousands of dollars in repair cost by not locking down the lineal table bearings before moving the machinery.

For molding knife quoting purposes, click to open the calculator below; we supplied only the important measurements; enter the appropriate dimension in the boxes provided. A brief detailed explanation on how to use the calculator is located here. If you would like some assistance with the dimensions, print a copy of our fraction - decimal - millimeter chart, place it on the molder or around the shop to help machine operators save time and increase accuracy during setup procedures.

Width = 2.250" / Depth of Cut = .281" (top knives) & .281" (bottom cutters).
