Yes you can do that with the scanning probe but, I would do it with the Wolfie's program, Just draw the end view and you can make any type moldings. NOTE; it takes the CW unit 8+ hours to carve an 8 foot lenght. Since it is a Crown type molding, I would run the top through the CW unit and use a router table with 90 degrees "V" bit for the back side. Have fun - The image is a Roman Ogee.
