Review on ๐Ÿ”„ Efficient Routing with RFT5200 Carbide Up Cut Spiral Router by Noah Trigg

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Annoying failure of Whiteside spiral nozzle

I bought this nozzle because of Whiteside's good reputation. I was hoping to get a very smooth cut with this but was disappointed when I first used it. The surface was rough and I felt much better with the CMT nozzle, which I also have. I tried using it again a few months later and before I could finish cutting, the bearings broke and I damaged my workpiece. One bearing is completely missing in the photo - the other has no internal stroke (not visible in the photo). The company that sold it referred me to Revain and they stated that the return period had expired. I think I'll contact Whiteside directly to see if they can help me. I'm afraid I've lost faith in her and won't be buying her stuff again.

Pros
