: The wood you find at Lowes is generally one inch or slightly less, perhaps
: 3/4", thick, correct?

: What strip width do you generally get with that?

: That is after you do the cove and bead routing what strip width remains.

Ok, geez, wake up then post, sorry.

The stuff at the box stores is decking material, so it's 5/4. Yields a piece quite a bit wider than 3/4".
