These bits are used to form a deep, decorative detail found on dining room, coffee or end tables, window sills, chair rails and china cabinets. You can create a unique style edge or duplicate a classic design. One edge, or top and bottom edges can be molded depending on wood thickness. Grandfather clock gooseneck molding (FIG. 1) is made with French Baroque (#8565) and Traditional (#8567) bits. The Traditional style is reversible and can be used as a drop leaf table joint (FIG. 2). Best results are obtained by making several light passes, increasing depth of cut with each pass. Also, to minimize burning on some woods such as cherry, maple or oak, the Router Speed Control can be used to reduce the router speed. Bits are 2 flute, carbide tipped with totally enclosed ball bearing guides. Cuts shown are based on making the maximum profile. Additional profiles can be made by raising the top portion of bit above the wood.
