I am trying to find screw on edges like they used way back when. Does anyone know if there is still a manufacturer of such things. Technology marched forward and I got left behind scrounging through the junkyard of time.

Thanks guys, this site is truly like none other.

i don`t think so, but there are several edge profiles out there: we all know and use the edges with T -punchs because they are the easiest to get and the easiest to bend.
some of the big manifacturers use edge profiles without any punchs (basically just a solid L-profile) and some use profiles with holes punched out. maybe you could get such a hole punched profile and screw it on...

Thank you plywood, I hadn't realized all the variations in edges being used by manufacturers. I need to do some searching around for suppliers, however as you mentioned bending those others are going to be tough, Im having a hard enough time getting these bent and on plane.
