Router Safety Tips: It's easy to prevent mishaps if you take a few simple precautions. 1) Rockler recommends using 1/2'' shank router bits whenever possible. 1/2'' shanks provide better stability with less vibration to produce a smoother cut and longer cutter life. 2) Make multiple light passes rather than one heavy cut. 3) Install your router bit so that 90% of the shank is inside the collet. Here's a rule of thumb: fully insert the bit, then pull it back 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch. 4) Use a router table whenever possible. 5) When using large diameter bits, reduce the RPM of your router. Then test your set-up on scrap lumber. 6) Always follow your router manufacturer's recommendations.

1) Submitted by Jim, from Mountain Lakes, NJ on 9/12/2010 Customer Rating: Bought both of these bits. Have only tried the small one on plywood but I am very pleased with the resulting clean edge. The large bit is a monster. I am going to be using it to joint edges on longer stock using the factory edge of MDF as a guide.

2) Submitted by Steve, from Orlando, FL on 7/23/2010 Customer Rating: I used this product to finish routing the edges of my 1-1/2" thick butcher block kitchen counter top, after I had cut the initial shape out for the under mount sink with a jig saw. It worked really well and left a great finish.

3) Submitted by Myron, from Maplewood, NEW JERSEY on 7/30/2009 Customer Rating: Purchased this router bit a while ago and finally had a chance to use it on a closet door which needed 1/16" trimmed off one edge. Worked great, producing smooth finish and no visible step between the two cuts. This bit saves mounting a guide for the router.

4) Submitted by Roy Peer, from San Antonio, TX on 8/4/2011 Customer Rating: I really like this bit. The cutting surfaces are even at an angle which helps mitigate problems with tearout. I bought it, not only on sale, but with free shipping as well. Once I got it and started using it I liked it so much that I went back to buy two more but the free shipping was suspended ... so I held off ... but if it hadn't been suspended I'd have bought two additional bits.

5) Submitted by Ed Shank, from Berea, OHIO on 2/21/2009 Customer Rating: This router bit worked exceptionally well for finish routing the edges of my butcher block style kitchen counter tops. It was razor sharp and cut a full 1-1/2" thick wood counter top like a hot knife through butter. As usual, Rockler's product excelled.
