This cutter will cope the rails if you are making traditional wooden doors, in a profile typically found here in old New England homes. Specifically, it allows you to use a full tenon in the joint which is appropriate- also makes a superior joint due to an increased surface area in the mating surfaces. It's good stuff.

I selected these router bits for my project of replicating the sashes in an old chicken coop.

Our house is 130 years old with almost 100 windows. Several window sashes need to be replaced, so I need router bits which I can rely on. That's why I turned to Freud.

I want to make a wood sash window with the sash having a 3/8 in. through tenon. What bits/tools do I need to make this size?
BEST ANSWER: I can recommend these matched cutters...the 99-050 is a "cope" cutter, so using a coping sled on a router table or spindle shaper there is no limit on overall tenon length, only a limit on big of a bite you may take with each pass. The cope cutter establishes one face of the tenon, the opposing asymmetric cheek (to accommodate the glazing rabbet) is cross-cut on the tablesaw, and the opposing tenon face with a tenoning jig on the tablesaw. If the glazing is to be stained glass/art glass/leaded glass it may be necessary to deepen the glazing rabbet, for single or double strength glass the 99-051 cutter set-up is workable.
