Hardwood Moulding · Solid Poplar
Running Leaf and Bead repeats 2 1/2 panel moulding for wall panels, wainscot, and cabinetry, milled from kiln-dried Poplar in 3″ × 3/4″. Ships unfinished, ready to paint or stain.
Real wood, real grain, milled in long lengths — so a panel moulding run reads as one continuous piece instead of a row of splices.

Construction
How This Profile Is Made
Solid Poplar
Milled from solid Poplar, this profile installs with standard woodworking tools and accepts paint or stain.
Lumber & Machining
All White River Hardwoods hardwood mouldings are milled from clear, kiln-dried hardwood lumber, NHLA graded and dried to 6–8% moisture content. Roughly 65% of the lumber runs 12′ to 16′, which is what lets us produce stock mouldings in overall lengths from 3′ to 16′. Profiles are precision machined on Weinig moulders with Weinig knife tooling.
Why This Profile
The Profile in Detail
✦
Long Stock Lengths
Milled in lengths up to 16′, so most runs go up without a splice. Fewer joints, cleaner line, less filling.
◇
Paint or Stain
Poplar takes paint cleanly and stains evenly. Ships unfinished so the finish is yours to choose.
⊢
Standard Tooling
Cuts, copes, and fastens like any hardwood trim. No special blades or adhesives.
⊕
Curved Work Available
Radius and curved versions of this profile can be produced for arched openings and curved walls. Ask your rep.
Installation
Step by Step
1
Acclimate
Store flat in the room for 48–72 hours before cutting. Poplar milled to 6–8% moisture will move if installed straight off a truck.
2
Prime Before Install
If painting, prime all faces and cut ends first. Back-priming stops moisture from moving in behind the finish.
3
Cope Inside Corners
Cope rather than miter inside corners on wood. A coped joint stays tight through seasonal movement; a miter opens.
4
Fasten Into Framing
Nail or trim-screw into framing every 16″. Glue miters at outside corners.
5
Fill & Sand
Fill nail holes with wood filler, sand flush, and spot-prime before top-coating.
6
Finish
Two coats of trim enamel, or stain and clear-coat. Poplar takes gel stain particularly evenly.
