Not what I expected.

After purchasing these thinking they would be very good I was unhappy that in a short space of time the 2008 had burned out more than I had cut myself. I've already had to replace the bearing above and was trying to get it sharp so it cuts through the wood instead of burning through it.

Very good workmanship, cut quality, smoothness

Going from a 1/4" shank made in China to a 1/2" Whiteside shank made a huge difference. The finish, the quality of the cut, the smoothness of the material after cutting is like nothing I've ever had. Yes, it's not cheap, but once you cut you'll realize it's money well spent.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Weight

Pros
  • Router Parts and Accessories
Cons
  • Weak

Don't buy anything else!

After I bought a set of Ryobi milling cutters, I decided that no matter what I bought, I always had to grind the finished surface.

Having bought and tested this kit, I totally agree. Ryobi bits are a piece of junk. The Whiteside beats are amazing! They do NOT require grinding after milling. The milled surface is so smooth that you…

Pros
  • Straight, Spiral, and Trimming Mills
Cons
  • Damaged

Great Bits, Great Choice

Whiteside is one of the best bits you can buy and people who know routers will no doubt agree. You will not regret if you buy them. The bonus is that this is a really great selection of beats for those just starting out. These are all bits that you will likely use again and again. You can buy a larger selection here or at a big department store for a lot less money, but you'll end up with a bunch of cheap parts, most of which you only use once and never need again. Ask yourself, do you want a…

Pros
  • Straight
Cons
  • Legacy
