Freud 99-041 1-27/32-Inch Biscuit Joining Router Bit

Cheap Freud 99-041 1-27/32-Inch Biscuit Joining Router Bit Review

We purchased this bit for cutting biscuit slots in window trim and cabinet face frames. It is a precsion, well made bit and very well balanced when used in our hand-held Porter Cable router. The instructions on the back of the package say that bits over 1-1/2" dia. should only be used with the router mounted in a router table. This bit is 1-27/32" dia. so using it free-hand is pushing the edge of safety. One issue is that because of the bit's diameter, unless your router has a large base, there is limited base surface to hold flush with your workpiece before you start plunging your cut. We used caution, took our time, and made successful cuts. The bit cuts effortlessly. It comes with three, interchangeable bearings to adjust the depth of the slot. The tool is made in Italy.
