I used this set to create cabinet doors about 15 years ago, they are still great. Now I need to make some more. But without the instructions that came with the bit it will be difficult. I see no way to obtain them other than buying a new set.

I purchased two of these bits thinking that I could save some time by not having to switch the cutters around to make the "second" cut. When i opened the bit there was excessive dried, crusty "packing grease", so the store associate called it which had to be removed by soaking the bit in lacquer thinner and carefully scraping away with a plastic scraper, so not to scratch the bit. When the bit was finally placed into my router, I noticed a difference in the spacer depth and the cutter depth. The spacer was 3/8" and the cutter was 1/4". When the cuts were made, the joints didnt fit together properly and were not up to my standards. Upon review of the instructions, I found out that I was supposed to make each cut separately, i.e. first make the ogee cut, then rearrange the bit and make the straight cut, then repeat the process to make the joining piece. When it is finally completed it is suggesting that you would have to make four cuts just to get one joint, which completely defeats the purpose of purchasing two bits. I returned my bits to the Sears store with no problem. If you have the time, I am sure these bits would work well for you, but that just isnt what i had in mind for making my door frames. I dont know if all the bits are like this or perhaps i just recieved two from a bad bunch.

more trouble than it's worth

This may be a good product but without the instructions you will be scratching your head trying to figure out the different combinations to pull this operation off. My advice to anyone making cabinet doors is just buy a matched set. It's enough work just trying to make a good looking paneled door without having to figure out this router bit. If Craftsman had a link(WEB SIGHT) to show the different combinations for cutting rails and stiles, then I would recommend this item. I haven't used my bit for a while so it took some time to get it right. A matched pair of bits isn't that much more money. Good Luck

Ogee Style Router Bit not useful on thicker wood

Because the router bit sections are once inch thick the three sections will join two boards that are about one inch thick.   Thicker boards require using the sections of the bit adjusted to different heights and this leads to errors and a poor fit.   First cut with the bit burnt the wood in places.   Packaging should have been maked as to the size of the wood it was designed for.

Fantastic product for the price.

I bought this bit several years ago and have used it without any problems. My only suggestion is to buy two and have them set up to do both cuts so you just have to interchange the bits in the router. However, if you are on a budget, like I was when i bought this product you can get by with just the single bit. I also suggest making a jig to get your heights correct and keeping that jig around to make your life easier.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
