Not much to say. It worked perfectly, which is what I expect from Freud. I used this bit to make a finger groove on the bottom side of a pull out shelf. I used either the 1" or 1.25" size because it was on sale. It was the perfect size in my opinion.

This is a comparison between the Freud 1" Round Nose bit versus the Whiteside 1" bit. The Freud overall length is shorted which I do not like. Our use requires the bit to extend further from the collet. The quality of the Frued is less than the Whiteside. Whiteside is more like a machining tool quality and it stay sharp more than twice the useage. That said the Freud was purchased at a $16.95 and the Whiteside is $36 to $39. You get what you pay for. We bought 2 and would not purchase again. I'll pay for the Whiteside.
"Rockler is my only source for fine tools and woodworking supplies. Every item I have purchased from them has been better than I anyone would expect from other suppliers. Thanks to them I have begun the wonderful and rewarding journey into turning, from my lathe to all my turning tools and gadgets, I am a fan. Rockler has enhanced my knowledge and expanded my enthusiasm. They are customer oriented. " -
