The dinette of my 73 is 5/8 plywood with a plastic T-mold edging. Well, some of it is. Some of it is now plain plywood edge with a groove cut in it. I would like to replace the edging, but I can't find a source for 5/8 material. There are lots of places I can get 3/4 or 13/16, but no 5/8.

I have put many feet of veneer edging on plywood, but I really don't want the hard edges on the dinette. I also don't want to tape and plane the edges of the dinette unless there is just no choice at all.

Hey Matt,
These guys show 5/8 T-mold in seven types.

I have some white t molding in my shop and you are welcome to some. It is a
bit larger than 3/4" but you only need to take some time with a razor blade
and trim in down. A good source is Outwater plastics. You can find them on
the net
