Thanks for the reply Charles. Good ideas. However, Im not sure the
"any high school kid could do it" statement is good for my ego ;^)
Even though you are probably right.

tools and knowledge. if you don't have one or both, then it's a hard task.
if you wanted to spend about $200-300 for the first one, you could buy the
tooling and enough wood to do it right. the second one would be really
cheap.

Finsihed my first tile project, entry way, looks great. However,
where the tile meets the living room laminate floor, I need an oak
reducer. At the Tile Shop, where I bought my tile, they had the
perfect oak reduced in two sizes in 8' lengths that I planned to use.
When I went there to get some, they said they had been out for some
time and no idea when more would be coming in. Cant seem to find
anything like it locally and not good enough with woodwroking to make
my own. Looks basically like this image:

Thoughts?

this is pretty easy to make with a table saw and router. i'd look up
custom
kitchen cabinet makers or perhaps a local woodworkers hobby club in the
area. try looking up hardwood in the yellow pages, and asking them for
references. chances are some woodworker is working for them who could do
it
for you. heck, some teenager or the wood shop teacher in the local high
school could make it for you and it'd probably be really cheap if you
provided the wood.

if you're really in a college, there might be a woodworking shop there.
