Abstract
A technique for forming a contoured axially extending engineered moulding that has at least one axially extending exposed surface. The technique includes providing an elongated outer wood section. A substrate having at least one axially extending side is provided. The wood section is adhered to the axially extending side. The wood section is contoured uniformly in an axial direction to form the exposed surface. A preferred embodiment uses a reengineered rip saw to contour the piece of wood. It is also assumed that multiple moldings can be machined by the reengineered rip saw simultaneously. The simultaneous machining by the reengineered rip saw also permits simultaneous measurements and simultaneous cross cutting and dado cutting of the moldings.
