Warning: Make sure the router bit is properly fastened and tightened in the router’s collet and the bit can rotate freely without any obstructions.
Instructions: Slowly dial up the RPMs on your router to the recommended maximum. Then, dial back if needed to find the “sweet spot”. The sweet spot is the speed at which the least resonant vibration is present. If the sweet spot cannot be achieved within 5,000 RPMs of the max, check the collet for residue or other debris and start over.

Round over edge forming router bits add a simple yet elegant profile to the edge of furniture and table tops and are a staple for any router bit collection. Round over router bits for rounding edges are distinguished by their radius property which also denotes its cutting depth. As with all edge forming router bits, these can be used to create small moldings that can be applied to many projects as well as crown molding build-ups. Edge forming router bits come in many shapes and sizes to meet the requirements of any style.
