Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The carbide cutting edges are very sharp and it plows through the plywood effortlessly. Cuts cleanly in a variety of hardwoods and runs very smoothly.

The multi depth bit with interchangeable bearings comes with two different washers. The interchangeable guide bearings are a great idea. Includes hard to find 1/4 rabbet bearing.

This is a durable, high quality set. I have no reservations or remorse about spending the extra cash. It's a bit counter intuitive if you don't know what you are doing.

Set delivered accurate rabbets for my cabinet panel inserts, and was way cleaner cutting tongues than my dado bits. Renovating our own kitchen right now.



Cons

The bearings are unusable. But the shims, screw, and bearings are all soft metal and haven't held up.

All the rabbets are are 1/16 to 3/32 off from what they should be. The screw that was supplied is not long enough to attach the flush bearing to the cutter.

Quality


It is a great quality, ease of usage, and i'm very pleased with the results.


Have used this a few times already and it seems like a good solid product.


But if you are into craft quality, risking cheap isn't a realistic option.


High quality, was not available locally so i ordered.

Price


Bit arrived on time and at an exceptional price.


Freud could have incorporated the bearings into that pretty box- now i will be doing that, increasing the price i have in the cutter set.

Packaging/appearance


If you have only a 1/4” collet, measure between cuts to be sure the bit hasn’t crept up in the collet!
