ROUTER BITS

I AM NEW TO RUNNIING AND PROGRAMMING CNC'S AND I AM IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO FIND THE BEST KIND OF BITS AND BRANDS TO USE. WE CUT ALOT OF 1/2" AND 5/8" PARTICLE BOARD, AND 3/4" SOLID STOCK. IF ANY ONE WOULD HELP ME THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

THANKS,

CABSPEC22

Dear CABSPEC22,

I have a lot of respect for the tool reviews in Fine Woodworking magazine. Last summer they reviewed some different makes of router cutters.

http://www.whitesiderouterbits.com/T...RouterBits.pdf

Whiteside and Eagle came out tops. I can't claim to have used them because I'm on the "rip-off Europe" side of the pond, and we have a limited range of tools available (all at vast expense compared to N. America).

Anyway, I hope this is of some use.

Best wishes,

Martin

Check out Hartlauer Bits in Oregon.

They have been very helpful in all my cnc router bit needs including the Belin.y bits.

If you want one-pass cutting, and arent needing "perfect mirror finish" edges, use a chipbreaker style bit.

http://www.amanatool.com/cncroutingdetails/46136.html

These give a really good cut in Particle Board, MDF etc... as well as solid wood.

also, get ahold of these guys, they make alot of their own tooling

I make mostly signs with my CNC and I use Centuriontools.com. I'm pretty sure they manufacture their own bits.

Their prices are reasonable,good quality and geared towards CNC machines.
