Review on Amana Tool Carbide Tipped Radius Cutting Tools and Router Bits by Michael Keitt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Certainly the best tool maker

Not much better than Amana tools. Freud, cmt and amana are the top 3 brands when it comes to milling cutters and all things machine. Amana has never failed me or anyone else. My only issue is that Amana doesn't have as much choice of smaller profile parts as Freud. CMT is the same, they don't have a lot of choices when it comes to smaller bits. I'm still very glad they have this Roman Auji in such a small size. This leaves such a clean finish that you hardly ever need to sand. I have no low speed overshoot around 10k. Gradually switched to bits with replaceable blades. I strongly recommend everyone to engage with them. CMT also makes many of these. They're really great and cheap. The bit costs about the same as a solid bit, but the blades only cost $5-10 to replace, making it a lot cheaper than using solid bits. Most replacement blades are multi-sided, which also increases their lifespan.

Pros
  • Diameter (D) 1
Cons
  • Not sure
