This cutter has been great so far. I've used it on several projects and it's been good for me. There is a warning on the packaging that you should definitely heed. I was lucky but I really had to unpack it on a soft surface. The shaft is firmly inserted into the plastic base (possibly glued?). This, combined with the sharp edges, is one accident waiting in the wings. This is just a word of caution, the product has been great so far!
Pros
1/8" to 1/2" depth of cut by replacing the bearing, 1-3/8" diameter and 3/4" length of cut.
Very happy with how smooth these bits are. I'm making some recessed panels to cover the four pillars in the entryway. I used the 1/8" setting to test, then switched to the 1/4" setting to complete the cutout for the panels. 4 without question. From now on I will look for CMT bits whenever I need to change something or get a new profile. It is great. You will not regret this purchase. worth your money.
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"β¦
Pros
For cutting different sized grooves in wood and wood composite materials.
