[QUOTE=LanceK] Dave,
I've done every rosette up to this one with a dremel and a Stewmac router base. If your bit is sharp, and you go slow, I'm sure you know it can be very effective.
If you ever consider a lam trimmer, you (can) alter your stewmac trimmer to fit one (that is if your using a stewmac circle cutter?).

I think it was Matt Gage that did that? maybe he'll chime in...[/QUOTE]
Hey Thanks for that info Lance
I didn't know you could use the Stew-Mac base with a
laminate trimmer.

Lance,
I didn't see the extra circle cutting attachment on the Allied's website. Is it included with the router base?

You can buy them directly from Bishop. I think they may come with a new base (but don't quote me on that), and for existing bases they are $11.85 delivered.

Anthony, just a word of warning: I ordered two of the 7/32 bits. They cost around 40$. The brokerage fee was near that as well! The UPS guy told me that the fee would have been the same even if the value of the package would have been 100$...

So by the time I put them in the router, they cost me about 40$ each! Still... the cut like mad!

I'm wondering if we wouldn't have their (Ridge) equivalent here in Canada?

slightly off topic but for those receiving things from canada, and i have heard it applies to getting things sent to canada, using the post office seems to remove the brokerage fee hit. i get things from a supplier in canada who ships canada post and the service is fast and cheap.
