I am putting a railing on my deck. The 4X4 posts protrude and need a cap. I couldn't find anything locally that I like. Actually, I did find a model, but it was pressure treated wood, and the store couldn't get it in cedar.
What I am thinking of is something similar to the following.
I thought of making a jig for the planer: flat melamine bed with a cleat under one side to create the right angle, and a sort of nest for the caps on the top so they don't move. But I suspect the pieces are too short and might jump up as the planer blades hit. Maybe hold the cap with carpet tape - which would be a PITA.
So any ideas or suggestions, fellow wreckers?
No problem with the rest of the moulding - router table & something to hold, as well as an applied moulding underneath. But the pyramid top has me stymied.
TIA
