A high quality racket that I have personally tested. The bearings are easy to use to adjust the depth of cut. The sheet shown shows which washers, seals and bearings are needed for which depth. Hand mill, I use a cut so as not to break the fragile mahogany, the cutting edge is still like new. Every cut on every board is smooth and perfect. This cutter is as good as any high quality brand name cutter you know - Freud etc. I compared this cutter to Freud and chose this cutter because of the 1/2" shank. and the variety of bearings it comes with.
