Review on πŸ”§ Whiteside 1540 Router Bits, 60-degree: Enhanced SEO by Derek Davie

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great beat! on bits for edging and grooving

I have actually bought two of these bits now after running the first one against the holddown screw of my CNC at high speed due to a poor estimation of the distance from my sides. To be honest I was surprised, the only minor damage from the encounter was the loss of the tip, maybe 0.015 overall length. Unfortunately, this didn't make it that useful for my CNC, so I reassigned it to shop grooving on my hand router. The cut is very good and the edge holds very well. I use this on an Inventables "X-Carve" with a DeWalt 611 as the spindle when programming with the V-Carve. It has worked very well for me so far and I will no doubt buy another one when this one finally wears out.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
