Review on Yonico 13962 16 Inch Radius Forming by Paul Varnado

You get what you pay for

I bought this to mill rounded edges on a guitar body, and it definitely doesn't stack with pricier beats like Amana and Whiteside. It heats up very quickly and fights with a 1/8" thick maple end. The problem is that the blades seem to have some play where he's just decided to take half the wood off at the end grain compared to the side, so I had to hand sand the rest of the material.I saved a few bucks on this bit, but given the number of guitar bodies I build I think I'll go with a high end bit.

Pros
  • Add curves to various finish edges and projects or create small moldings to use individually or as part of a molding extension
Cons
  • Something else
