Hi guys, I've got a cheap router I've used a few times and I'm intending to make a step out of 22mm ply and want to run a bullnose down it. What router piece do I buy as want to make sure I buy the right one?
Don't know if ply will produce an acceptable result when bull-nosed as every other grain will be a bit "hairy". You might want to consider simply glueing a convex-faced wooden moulding to the straight cut face of the ply. That then saves you the expense of a cutter.

could you not cut a slot(groove) in the ply and using some timber (soft or hardwood)make your nosing out of that then either cut another slot or form a tongue glue it to the ply?
or save all of that hard work and just use a biscuit jointer .
I should mention it's a going that protrudes outwards in an L shape. In other words it is not wall to wall, so the corner will need to be molded sufficiently also. This is why the moldings which are available could be difficult to make good as there is a corner involved
