| Post subject: | Question about a router bit |
Does anyone know where I can get a spiral cut flush trim but with the bearing on the bottom instead of the top? I would prefer a 1/4" shank but can do 1/2". I've been looking a lot an cant seem to find one. Any help would be appreciated. |

Thanks but that has the bearing on top, I'm looking for one on the bottom. Incidentally I have that exact bit already. It's a good bit! |

No special reason, I just like the cleaner cuts they produce |

I'm looking for one with a top guide bearing, like you use on a plunge bit |

You could always turn your router upside down.

Spiral bits are mainly designed for CNC use and plunge cutting. Never seen one with the bearing between the shank and flutes. You could use this bit with a 1/2" shank and a 3/4" cut http://routerbitworld.com/Amana-46109-S ... 046109.htm Use it with a guide collar and you will get the same effect, just more trouble to set up and not as smooth, that is of course if you don't have coronary when you see the price on the bit. |
