Review on Amana RC 1040 Insert Groove Router by John Clark

I used this in a pre-machined part for chamfering. I used a square end mill to offset the area to leave .030 stock and steps. In other words, it was REAL! simple cut. Material Baltic birch 18 mm plywood. The carbide caught in the material and bent the tip of the drill. There is no excuse for such a bad product. I have other Amana products and they seem to be working fine. When someone else did 40 degrees. little i would never buy it. I sent the bit back and will now make sure to make a custom brazed carbide bit.
