This is an excellent cutter. I used it to process a huge amount of MDF for wall paneling in my living room and one side of the stairs. Typical of anything I've ever used with Freud, the racquet is solid, well made, sharp and easy to use. I've used it with a 1/2" porter cable router in my desk and it only required a little fiddling with the height to line up the blocking pieces and once that was done it was very easy to use. I was almost sorry when I was done!
