By Far the most simple way of setting the bit up vs measuring half way up the bit and half the thickness of the wood. Thank you!

You made the apparent difficult setup to be stupidly simple. I have watched multiple videos attempting to explain this router bit - none were sensible, logical or practical. Well done, very impressed and very much appreciated 😊

Why!! I’ve watched so many of these set up videos, measured centerlines of material, fiddled and tweaked router settings to the point of frustration. The bits are in the drawer never used because they were so finicky. This is the ah ha moment I didn’t realize existed. Thank you!

what are the suggested RPMs? I just received my 3 Bits from Amazon however, there are no instructions on setup or the RPMs, on the bottom of the box the verbiage indicates "The Max permissible rotational speed(specifications on the chart) must not be exceeded!" I DID NOT receive a chart and I can't find a cart on the internet or on You Tube. Question? what is the RPM I have a standard Craftsman 1/4" router I think I cant use it because i can't change the RPM's and If I need to but a new router I still need to know what the RPM's should be to use this tool. I thought this was going to be simple it's looking like I'm going to have to send this item back to Amazon and also write a bad review on this product. Oh also the font of the Box says USA US brand with Global Srouce making it look like it's made in the USA but the item is labeled Made in China ( Packaged and product designed in the USA). Any help with the recommended RPM's would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Those locking miter bits with the 1/4" shank are fine for ply and soft woods but EXTREMELY DANGERIOUS for hardwoods! You need the 1/2" shank for stability. I have had 2 of the 1/4" shank locking miter bits from this company bend with very limited use on hardwood. Throwing a bit on a miter table is well,. Not good people! There is a reason why pro companies like Fruid don't offer these style bits with a 1/4" shank.
@csimet

Yikes... I didn't notice that until I scrolled down to see these comments. Agree 100%. I have the Valkyr 1/2" shank version. With any bit that does edge joins, I suggest you also use featherboards to hold the stock down and towards the fence... to get proper alignment and fit.

Thank you for this simple and to the point video. My next project is building an external speaker enclosure for my ham radio rig. I can buy one from the manufacturer for over $100 but why buy one when I can build it. I don’t believe I can find oak or poplar that is 1/4” by 6” width so I’ll build it 1/2” by 6” width. I’m having fun with my Bosch router table combo I made a hardwood base 3”x 4” bass for a Morse code straight key. I used a Roman Ogee bit to make base look turn of the century and early American stain. I hope I have the same results as you.

I'll subscribe if you answer my question. (Backstory). Me an my wife just bought a house. It needs some trim work...drywall included. What tools do I need? I'm a welder and mechanic by trade so I own drills and metal working stuff. Know literally nothing about wood.
@WesHamstra
3 жыл бұрын
You need to get a mitre saw to cut the trim. You can use a hammer and finishing nails to fasten it but a Brad nailer is easy. As far as drywall goes you just need a knife and a drywall handsaw. Sounds like you have a drill already. Make sure you use a drywall dimpler to avoid putting the screws in too deep.
