I am trying to locate a source for extruded aluminum quarter round trim in 1/4" width. I need it in a yard or more length. Does anyone have ascource for this? I need it for a wooden windshield frame....not having much luck with Lyman and Thompson forums as they mainly used a rubber gasket molding.

You'll have to buy it through one of their suppliers since they don't sell direct to the public. You might want to check them out to see if they have what you need. Good luck. www.tacomarine.com Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

At 12' the shipping is very expensive. If you can live with 6' pieces the shipping is about 1/3. If they don't have exactly what you need call them.

Pre-1959 boats made by Thompson Bros. Boat Mfg. Co. used an aluminum window stop, not the vinyl/rubber type. It was a square section, not curved on the one face.

If I had to get new stuff I have no clue where to get it. I have numerous pre-1959 Thompson lapstrake boats.

Maybe try an architectural metal type business.
