Router Bit set query

Folks -

I am looking for a set of router bits for doing rails and stiles for doors,
also bits for raised panels. With the profusion of brands, I am out of
bandwidth. Personal recommendations? Anything I should stay away from.
Any feedback based on personal experience would be welcomed.

See prior post regarding holiday greetings, or not, depending on your
personal belief system(s)

Ever,

John Moorhead

Do you have the old CMT bits, made by the company now know as Jesada, or the
newer version?

Whiteside,

They're the best, cheaper and made in the USA.

Very happy with my Freud door set. One thing I did find was that the
panel-raising bit was way too big to fit through the hole in the router
table, even with no insert fitted. I had to make a false table top from
1/2" ply. No big deal, but I'd check up on that.

Cheers

Frank

Until they prove they don't deserve it, CMT will get my business.
