I have been using a Dremel for rosettes and now I want to use my Bosch Colt. Looking at the options for using 1/8 end mills in the 1/4 collet there are some high end ones and low end ones. What have any of you found that works well for this router?

Thanks

I'm using the split bushing adaptor I picked up from LMI many years ago. It works great in my DIY CNC machine cutting shell with 1/32" bits. You should have no trouble using it for rosette channels.
