Whiteside Router Bits 3050 Diameter Review

This bit was delivered quickly and in excellent condition. It worked great. Until this happened. I cut two keyholes about two inches long in 9 pieces of poplar and then snapped the bit. I didn't push too fast, double slow, or work too hard. upset.

I bought this nozzle in February 2016. At first I was very happy with it because it cuts quite well despite a groove. Haven't used a club but maybe a dozen times and was about to make a cut the other day, bumped it into a piece of soft jaw and when I started pulling on it it broke in half. I really expected him to make hundreds of cuts, not just a few. I can't, in good conscience, recommend this beat.

I use them in a production environment and have tested every brand I can find. For me and my application, this Whiteside bit is enough for about 1000 keyholes in hardwood. Bosch, Vermont American, Irwin Marples and Freud barely survive 300 keyholes before dulling and burning. Obviously, like any beat, it gets boring over time, but I found this one to be the best value.
