Thanks, that occurred to me as I was taking up the old 1/4 round today. Which was bedded with 5200. I guess that's what you use when you are absolutely sure you won't be the guy who has to take it up 35 years later! Hasn't been a fun day.

I was thinking about the best way to bevel the 90 degree. Have the power tools, table saw, router, etc. but it seems I could do it by hand without too much trouble. It totals about 35' and doesn't have to be exact, just a little relief. Guess I could set up a 45 degree jig of sorts and run it through the table saw as well.
