hi my name's kevin and on behalf of expertvillage, i'm going to talk to you about router bits. there are an infinite number of routerbits out there for just about any purpose you can think of and just about every sizeand shape and profile that you can think of and if there isn't you can get custom routerbits made at certain places. so there's really no limit to what shape you can put on a pieceof wood and also jig up with whatever you
routers woodworking, need to do. so i'm going to show you justa few of the different ones that are available just to give you a broad spectrum. and whatwe have here is a rabbiting bit which rides up against the wood on this bearing and thencreates a rabbit with this blade right here. these are flush trim bits which ride up againstthe wood on the bearing here and then this
blade which is a perfect plane with this bearingcreates a flush surface. what we got here is some detailing bits and these create coves,round overs, details which are generally used for decoration, round overs on tables andfronts with the cove. here's another round over bit. we've got what's called a chamferbit. this rides on the wood here and this creates an angled profile on a table top drawers,many different things. we've got a dove tailed bit here which used with a jig, you can dodove tails in drawers and then you move up to these raised panel bits which generallygo in a shaper, which is esentially a very big router with a big steel table and thesegenerally take out a lot of material and aren't really done with a router this size, thisneeds a really big router for this. and generally
you want to do something like this with ashaper, but this is a raised panel bit for like raised panel doors that you see in solidwood and bathrooms and kitchens and things like that.
