I have completed the 45 degree bar except to put on the final bar top and bar rail.
Does anyone know the proper bar rail profile to use with the plans given dimensions? Is Rockler the link to use and to buy the rail?
If so which profile?THE PLAN THROWS YOU TO THE ROCKLER LINK

Rockler is probably the best source and currently offers two profiles…
Large Profile Molding 6-5/8 in.
and Small Profile Molding 5 in.
http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=5762&sid=AF523The small profile is the most popular and should work with all the plans on the site.
Either of these two profiles (or other third party bar rail products) can work with the plans, but you will need to make minor adjustments to make them fit.
Bar rail profiles change from time to time, so the best approach is to decide which profile fits your liking then order it. Once it arrives, make the necessary adjustment to make them fit.They wrong approach is to just assume anything will fit without first double checking or seeing the actual finished product.
Here is a detail drawing of the Rockler Small Profile Arm Rail, but again, this may not be exactly what you get when you order it. So, order it (or a piece) and verify the measurements. I have contacted Rockler to see if they can provide better, more up to date dimensions.
