The only thing I can see is that the depth of your rebate on your plan calls for a 3mm step down from the lambs tongue (Or Ogee if that's what you call it) and a 4mm step down from the bead, whilst on Whitehill's final iteration it looks like it's 3mm on both. I might be wrong though.
 
Looks like it must have been nearly rubbing on the cutterblock- the round not being positioned in the middle of the cutter. I had a mould that was almost at maximum depth capacity before. I ended up having to tiddle with the wedge part using an angle grinder lol.

Although Whitehill have not dimensioned it, the cutter does give the 4mm step down and so that's not it. 8)

I'm sorry but I don't quite follow you.
 
This is where I ground off the wedges a bit.

What I meant was it looks like you were almost the full depth of how deep a euro cutter could go.

Is it anything to do with the depths of the cutters? Were you hoping you could run one mould through then just alter the height on the other mould, not altering the fence at all ?
Blown if I can spot anything otherwise !

No, I have to turn the timber over to do the second pass with the other cutter.

With regard to moving the fence I tend to be a bit cautious -possibly over-cautious and only nibble away at the moulding rather than try to do it all in one pass. How many passes would you do out of interest ?
 
I'd do it in one pass with roller feed on the slowest. If you don't do it in one bite you're using a lot of the support. Careful positioning of the roller feed to make the most of what large flat areas you've got left on the timber section.

OK..I'll 'man up' a bit next time :)

With regard to support, I did realise part way through moulding the prototype that I had a support problem as the profile height is not the same between the two cutters (deliberately). I did come up wth what I thought was an elegant solution - alluded to in an earlier post.

I can send you the answer to both if you're stumped :D

I'll be patient with the rest Roger. Is it a measurement error or the cutters being ground ............oh balls, just pm me please ! I could snuff it tonight and not know the error lol !

I honestly can't see anything obviously wrong. The only (really wild guess) thing I can think of is that you've allowed in your spindle setup for a unmoulded piece underneath the cutters to bear against the fence to stop the moulding from dropping in, if this wasn't allowed for beforehand and if you went off exact measurements of the architrave you would end up taking a little bit off the moulding with the rebate part of the second pass.

A couple better clues would be appreciated!

Getting warmer....the rebate dimension in my original drawing did not get passed through to later stages.

I've dropped a clue...if you still want a pm then let me know !
 
Meanwhile last nights struggle for something to draw on nearly resulted in......
