The message from Dougie Nisbet contains these words:
On the other hand, if I could find a local timber merchant (just moved
into the area so still finding the local outlets) and told them the
dimensions would they be likely to cut a piece to size?

Take them a section, or cut a cardboard template and take them that. A
good woodyard should be able to match it easily.

But probably not very cheaply - tooling costs money nowadays

"They" (Jewson's, and similar) charge about £20 as a setting-up
fee. Sawn timber is then fed through and you get the moulding.
Until new H&S regulations, the result of European machinations,
that was that. Now they are reluctant to make any old moulding,
and need the cutters "available". Big step forward; *not*.
