Review on πŸ”§ Outwater Industries - 25ft White 3/4" Center Barb Tee Moulding T Molding Hobbyist Pack for Small Projects, Arcade Machines, and Tables by Chris Riley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

very nice edge profile

I've used edge banding on many projects and it's good for edges that don't require too much maintenance. I used this product on a project where I knew the edge was going to bump a bit. I had to buy a new router to cut a notch in the notched T, but it only cost $20+. Once the router is set to cut the correct depth so the slot is EXACTLY in the center of the board, it works quickly. I used a 1/16 inch slot cut from 3/4 thick melamine. The fit was so tight I couldn't insert the barb by hand, but tapping with a plastic mallet worked really well. I was very happy with the finished product, it looks much better than the iron on the edge. However, it is MUCH more expensive compared to November 2020 prices for 3/4 inch 250ft iron reels with iron at about 0.12 per foot. Tee is .36 per foot

Pros
  • Often used for worktop edges, decorative edges and shelf rails.
Cons
