Use this to cut slots in bottom and top boxes. Once I made a decent pusher (3x3x8 pecan block) and figured out the clutch box stoppers, it works really well. This is a fairly powerful cutting action that takes some getting used to with thinner materials. Once you stabilize your supply, it works like a dream. I have 3 different cutters that I use for this and they all cut equally well. Whiteside bits are really top notch and hold their edges well if you take care of them. I have tried many different brands of bait and if I use them more than once or twice I will buy Whiteside.
