Hi Ken,
" Applied moulding" doors can look like that. They are made just like any
R&S door and then you add pieces of moulding to give the profile that you
desire. Cheers, JG

Hi Ken,
You could as far as I know. As long as you had the cutter/ knife/bit to
match the desired profile. I have seen a set of rather elaborate doors
where the builder used a combination of bits to produce the final profile.
Looked nice but it took him a long time.
Also, I do not make my mouldings, I buy them from a specialty moulding
shop. That way I can concentrate on doing those things that I am efficient
at doing and still produce a range of product at a good price. Cheers, JG

So you make a flat rail/stile, then glue a piece of moulding on
the flat rail/stile to make the middle of the rail/stile bulge
outwards? But then you'd still have to make the piece of moulding
into a convex shape, so why wouldn't you use the same technique
on the rail/stile instead?
