Rebated Timber Dowel Handrail

We recently had a request from a customer interstate to manufacture a timber dowel handrail with a rebate in it so that a light strip could be placed underneath it.

Measuring 50mm in diameter and made from Victorian Ash, the rebate needed to be 24mm wide and 25mm deep.

Even with our 7 head Weining moulder, this proved to be quite a challenge, but we were able to produce the 50mm dowel as well as the deep rebate in 1 pass .... just !

Over the last few years we have produced a number of handrails with rebates so that lighting strip can be placed on the underside of the handrail, but this one was certainly the biggest we have had to do.
