Way cool retro aluminum moulding

Postby Ralf » Tue Feb 26, 2008 11:15 pm

When searching the internet for aluminum trim I kept running into the website for BarsandBooths.com. in Charles Town WV, One hour from Baltimore and DC. I live in southern WV, 5 hour drive. I am in the "panhandle" of WV today on business and droped by their store. Circa 1950's bar stools, booths, boomarang formica tops and great edge and trim moulding. Staff was great, gave ne a bag full of samples. All moldings come in 12' lengths and they will cut to ship ups or motorfreight 12' length. They make custom booths, bars and kitchens as well as sell the materials. If you are going for the retro look this is the place. Even the flat mouldings would make great accent trim.

Thanks Ralf!

I've been looking for some chrome retro table edging to finish up a bathroom project, and they sell EXACTLY what I need . . . . I've been looking all over for it

Even better, I'm going to be in West Virginia (Marlinton) for the CBX rally this June, so I can run up and buy it in person and thereby miss out on their ridiculous $30 'cutting fee' ($15 per cut and you have to buy a minimum of 2 lengths)
