What is the benefit of the aluminium carry case?

The carry case provides organized storage and protects the cutters from damage, making them easy to transport.

Are these cutters suitable for a beginner?

Yes, this set is a great starting point for beginners, providing a variety of essential cutter profiles to get started.

How do I choose the right cutter for my project?

Consider the shape and edge you want to create (e.g., round over for edges, dovetail for joints). Refer to the included documentation or online resources for guidance.

How do I clean the router bits?

Use a specialized cleaning solution and a brush to remove resin and wood debris after each use. Avoid using water.

What type of router is compatible with these cutters?

Troubleshooting

Poor Cut Quality

Check the cutter for sharpness. Replace if dull. Ensure the cutter is properly installed and that the router speed is appropriate for the material. Also, make sure that the material is securely clamped and that you are using a sharp cutter.

Burn Marks on the Wood

Reduce the feed rate (how quickly you move the wood past the cutter), increase the router speed, or use a sharper cutter. Always make sure the cutter is sharp and the feed rate is not too slow.

Vibration During Use

Make sure the cutter is properly inserted into the router collet and that the collet is tightened securely. Also, ensure the cutter is clean and free of debris.

Cutter Not Fitting in Router

Check that the cutter shank size matches your router's collet size (1/4" or 1/2"). Use an adapter if necessary, or get the correct shank size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Router Compatibility: Ensure that the cutters are compatible with your router's collet size (typically 1/4" or 1/2").
  2. Safety First: Always wear safety glasses and a dust mask when routing. Use push sticks to keep your hands away from the spinning cutter.
  3. Secure the Workpiece: Clamp the workpiece securely to your workbench to prevent movement during routing.
  4. Cut Depth: Make small passes to achieve the desired depth gradually. Never remove too much material in a single pass.
  5. Router Speed: Adjust the router speed according to the material and cutter being used. Softer woods often require higher speeds, while hardwoods may need slower speeds.
  6. Cleaning: After each use, clean the cutters with a specialized cleaning solution and a brush to remove resin and wood debris.
  7. Storage: Store the cutters in the provided aluminium case to protect them from damage and to keep them organized. Keep the cutters in a dry place.
