Reproduced this old rail profile this afternoon. Three passes with the beading bit on each side, then the roundover, and then I turned the rail on it's side and shaved a 5* slope on the top of the rail from the center of the top down to the rounded shoulder.
Still have sanding to do... and need to run a sample by the inspectors office to see if it meets their notion of grippable (might have to run the beading down deeper). This is a porch railing for a Victorian. I milled this out of Cedar 4x4's... found some pretty good stuff.
