Thanks mark76 that’s very nice of you!
Geo,
It made of wooden trim base board or molding actually. Haha taper side up. Yes the groove are pretty helpful I think and was all done with a dremel drill. It started out at small groove then lead to this after a little slip of the hand and some crafty thinking. I mounted it with straight 2 hole brackets on the sides, I did make pilot holes to make sure nothing splintered and I knew the base would be tough to drill into without pilot holes.
I know, I was surprised how close the blue matched it was my intention but it turned out better than I thought. Its krylon brand spray paint, statin finish, color was Oxford blue! Yep spray paint, it was the best match I would find so it’s what I decided to use.
And I agree the blue is the hallmark color and is why I wanted to match it!
