Great carbide holds an edge a long time. No tear out, burn, or blemishing. Any imperfection in the table top are due to my lack of carpentry skill. Nice finish on the cedar.

My router is a dewalt dw-618 (2 1/4 hp) and it handled surfacing the stick with now issues at all. Using in my * 2.

Beware of price hike per unit when ordering multiple bits at once!

Shipping

Have used other bits including amana, uxcell, freud, and yonico.


5” off an 8’x8’ slab bought three different brands other two cheap ones.


I bought 3 other "cheaper" bits from amazon to test and see what worked best and this beat all of them easily.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I went to rockler and bought a 6 ft slab of rough poplar and chopped into rough halves


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I shimmed the slab so it wouldn’t rock and hot glued it in place


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Next i set up the rails and sled and took off about an 18”


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
