Disappointing Quality

As a result of my tests i determined that the Amana Tool Colonial router bit was not up to PAR.The bit showed signs of wear after only a few uses, resulting in inconsistent cuts and poor quality. While the price was initially attractive, the lower quality ultimately made this bit a waste of money..

Pros
  • Initial price point
Cons
  • Poor quality and inconsistent cuts

Quality workmanship but useless.

The problem with this bit is that the radius of the thin section is 3/8 inch which is smaller than the shank radius. The workpiece must have a top and bottom "edge" that aligns with the entry and exit guides. Multiple passes become impossible. A single pass in oversized material will result in the workpiece not registering on the output rail, causing vibrations that produce poor results. Apparently nobody at Amana has tested this bit. Do not buy. The manual is generic and contains no info on…

Pros
  • Edger and Nut Bits
Cons
  • Damaged
