What the hell, with the local WWW stores closing their doors and 40% off
router bits, I kinda blew the budget this month since I know I won't see
prices like this again and my friend is still working there - so why not.
Picked up the Recov-Bead Glassdoor Set (99-281) and the Divided Light
Cabinet Door Set (99-270) as well as the adjustable tongue and groove set, a
glue joint bit, adjustable slot cutter and several other plain Jane bits.
The door sets will be used soon enough and I'll certainly experiment with
them and learn how to use them properly but.... The Divided Light Cabinet
Door Set (99-270) has me a little baffled. The profiles do not match as you
would expect for a stile and rail bit and I just can't visualize how these
fit together. Probably as soon as I make some test cuts, the light will go
on but until then, I'm gonna loose some sleep.... They are assembled
correctly and they match the profiles as shown on Freud's site - so that's
not the problem.
I've searched the Freud site and plenty of others for info but all I can
find is one review pretty much stating what I said but nothing more. Anyone
have any experience with these that you would care to share or a site with
more info?
Thanks,
Bob S.
Thanks - I'll check their site. The more I look at this thing the confuser
I get... Gotta be something real simple I'm overlooking. Would like to
give it a whirl but its just to damn cold out in the shop right now - and
besides I'm in the middle of doing a wireless design for a project in
Memphis (gotta pay the bills while we can ya know).
Thanks,
Bob S.

Bob,
CMT makes a divided light router bit set. I picked one up a couple
months ago, but haven't used it yet. But here's the thing: I got an
instructional video from Sommerfeld with it! Perhaps their video would
help you figure out how to use the Freud? I paid only $5 for it at the
time of purchase; don't know how much it is when sold separately...
