🔪 Ultimate Precision with Bestgle Straight Carbide Woodworking Diameter Review

Sorry I bought these as they don't last long. I had a 1/4 inch crack after the first use on Baltic birch plywood. I've had good luck with other items from the same manufacturer, but I won't buy them again.

Received quickly, bought the whole set for less than half the price of a "pro" bit, but a club from the set only took a few passes. This worked great for my needs and now I have a complete set which I found very valuable.

I needed to cut a 3/4" x 3/4" groove in 2x4 mahogany. I cut a 3/8" x 3/4" slot with a cutter, which I then finished with a new 3/4" cutter. The 3/4" cutter continued to pull out 2- to 3-inch Shavings out instead of regular sawdust. The new router bit did the job but later became dull. The problem may have arisen because I made a 3/8" cut. Great value for the money but I doubt how long they stay sharp.

I've only used 2 bits so far but they did the job as expected. The cuts were accurate and saw no splinters. I hope to use other beats as I work on new projects. Will update later if they let me down. UPDATE: I used 2 more bits and reused the previous ones (several times now) and all the cuts are still accurate. I would recommend this set for weekend woodworking.

I was able to cut a 1/2 inch deep edge in just one pass using a 3/4 inch router bit on a Makita laminate router. the tree was a cypress. I shouldn't have asked so much about it. Should have gotten either smaller or smaller or both. If it was white oak, I'd be screwed. I think I would have screwed up anyway, except in my particular case. Who knows. If I need them again and remember them I will update.

I'll update my review: The 1/4" bit broke on the second pass. Luckily I wore glasses. Should have spent the money on a good piece. Kinda freaked out. I knew they were cheap but didn't expect them to break the first time I used them. Original Review: Received my set and measured the bits. I have two 1/2" bits and no 3/8" bits but not worth returning because they are so cheap. Effortlessly slices Dado into 3/4 inch slices. Let's see how long they last, but the price doesn't bite.

Went through my wood once and the 3/4 inch bit was smoking like an oven. Filled my entire shop with cloudy haze. Makes me think I stopped chopping and burned my way through the wood. And it was only 1/4 the depth I needed, maybe 1/8 inch. Did a few more passes and finished the depth. Down through the T rail and figured it would go in since it's 3/4" thick. Well I should have known. My spacing was too narrow. So ending my review not sharp, not durable and not true to size. Wouldn't recommend…
