Charles M,
Thanks for your interest in my work. I wasn't aware of the new Freud 99-482 when I started this thread (my Freud catalog is five years old). You are correct in that this bit cuts the correct profile, but in a larger size than I wanted. It appears to have cove and roundover radii of 1/2", judging from the length of the profile. I used 3/8" radii bits for my molding.
Incidentally, a cyma reversa (ogee) on the edge of a board laid flat starts and ends in a vertical plane, while a cyma recta (Roman ogee) starts and ends in a horizontal plane. Most standard ogee and Roman ogee bits include a full 90° of both roundover and cove cuts, while the Freud 99-482 cuts 60° of both roundover and cove, the same as I was able to do with the 3/8" bits.
