Excellent cutter attachment

After thinking about buying a cutter attachment, I decided it was worth trying this attachment and spending $30+ instead of $200+ on carpentry. The bit comes with three sizes of bearings, so you can connect #20, #10, and #0 biscuits by simply swapping out the included bearings. When used with my router table, cuts in pine were smooth and easy. At this point I see no way to buy a cookie joiner machine unless it was commercially made or simply required the best tooling available. Hope that helps.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things

Very happy with this cutter. Used it this weekend to cut grooves in some pine boards. I've gradually expanded my knife collection and always looked at Whiteside first. These are quality bits made in the USA. I bought a bit with a 1/4" shank /2" shank bit (#1945). I cut slots in a 5/4 board and wanted the biscuit to be in the center of the board. With the drill set correctly (i.e. /8" or so) I found that the collet got in the way of the workpiece at the height I wanted to cut the slot. I ended…

Pros
  • Freehand
Cons
  • Very expensive

Much cheaper than a cookie cutter if you have a router.

If you want to make cookie seams (cookies of any size) and you have a good router, this set will save you from having to buy cookie seam cutters. The only downside is deciding how long to cut the holes. The cutter uses a 4 inch (or so) diameter blade so the slits are the correct length. The blade of this cutter is slightly smaller, so you will need to lengthen the holes by moving the router about 1 inch along the edge. There are two solutions (maybe others I haven't thought of). First carefully

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Something different
