[QUOTE="thylantyr, post: 1221133, member: 560358"] Any Whiteside router bit is ranked high. I have their beefy 1.5" roundover bit {3" wide bit} that has big azz carbide tips and I did a roundover on 1.5" thick MDF in one pass, it just ate the MDF like butter. This was so cool. Cost me $125 for that bit though but it did the job without flaw. pics; [URL="http://home.pacbell.net/lordpk/port/"]http://home.pacbell.net/lordpk/port/[/URL] I made custom 6" flared ports, 6" hole, 9" flare, 12" flange. Gonna use one of these for each 15" woofer I have. The black port is a Precision Port 4" flared for size reference. In all, I have almost $1000 in Whiteside bits as I've collected them over the years. Always use common sense when cutting and use a variable speed router if you have that luxury. My next big tool purchase --> 12" sliding compound miter saw [$600] ... /ouch sometimes I want to build something with 4x4 wood and the 10" saw won't cut it in one pass, too short. You need the 12" blade. Sliding is very cool, you can cut more wood vs. fixed, but it cost more for a sliding saw. [/QUOTE]
