Rope detail is created with an ornamental mill. The blank is rotated while the cutter moves on the length, creating the rope detail.

You may consider buying the rope molding at Home Depot or Lowe's which comes 3/4" wide X 8' or 10' lengths. If you need a larger width, find some one with an ornamental mill, like us!

When creating your molding allow a flat spot to glue on the rope detail and other router bits to create the rest of the detail.

We have a molder which, custom knifes are available or made to order, that allows us to recreate virtually any detail. Some times it may take multiple passes and an assortment of knifes or router bits.

Hope this was helpful.
