if only!!!!!!!!!!
i need the 6 inch type.
i can undertand why the manufacturers make it,BUT why do people buy the 2 sided/moulded type?It twists and buckles and looks as skinny and feeble as kenneth williams!One of you good chippy types must know of a good way of stopping the bottom edge(on the double moulded version)twisting underneath itself ?
(ps.Big All please show me the way 8" ovolo timber merchants Wink

I can beat that, Champions do a 9" Ovolo as well as 7" Grin

Give them a call before you go there as it may not be a stock moulding
