Replicating old window trim
We needed to add some bottom casing to the bathroom window. This window's bottom casing was removed in a previous remodel. I wanted to match all the other 1895 window trim in the house. I bought some new router bits and milled some new ones to match.

A comparison with the original casing with my new casing. Pretty good match. |
