What Customers Say About Freud 99-569 3-1/2-Inch Raised Panel Bit with Backcutters:
|
|
Project went well, I sold it for $2,000. I think an old review criticized the packaging. My bit came with excellent packaging.
I've used the bit together with the freud set 97-106 and it works very well. I bought this about 2 years ago and used it to make about a dozen raised panels. so, anyone contemplating to buy this, I'd instead recommend to get the 99-519 bit. However, the bit's main disadvantage is it lacks a bearing which makes it impossible to use this on an arched panel - at least I'm not aware of a safe way to use a 3.5" bit without bearing without a fence. It's a good bit and creates very smooth, beautiful profiles. I usually take 3 to 4 passes to remove all the material (that's when using 3/4" mahagony).
I have only used this on pine and was able to route with one pass, although I would probably make at least three passes with a hardwood. Produces very smooth cuts with no tear-out on top. I like the backcutter in that it produces the back cut at the same time.
