5.0 out of 5 stars Typical Excellent Freud Quality, February 26, 2005

By	ROBERT F. Areddy (Oakland Twp, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is my first rail/stile bit sit I've ever used. I mounted the inside bit first (I don't even know which one! The one that makes the groove for the panel...), milled up a couple of pieces of white oak test pieces. Using my jig for my raise panel bit (which is basically a fence, and 1/2" board, which raises the piece above my router table top. I need this because the opening for these bits in my router are not large enough...) I eyeballed the height for the bit. Ran the piece though, PERFECT on the first pass. No burning, no tearout. Perfect.

Replaced the bit with its complement, eyeballed the height, and using a square long board, ran the rail through holding it tight against the guide board. It ran though fine, but the height was slightly off. One adjustment later, I ran it through again, and again the fit was PERFECT!

I highly recommend this set.

5.0 out of 5 stars great quailty, May 13, 2007

By	Rodney L. Nelson (GrandJunction CO) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The first set of bits performed great and kept there edge a long time after routing a lot of oak, when it came time to replace them I naturally bought another set

5.0 out of 5 stars Why Not Sooner, May 12, 2007

I am wondering why I didn't take time to order this set of bits sooner. I can make cabinet doors in a fraction of the time and now they look professional.
