Whiteside Router Bits 401 Basic Router Bit with 1/2-Inch Shank

There’s a lot of really basic Rutter bits in this kit and you can do a lot with it. The price is good and the quality is fantastic. I’ve bought a few budget brand router bits, and I’ve noticed that they cut much rougher and they can burn a little. No issues like that with these to be honest I had to change a little of my habits because these things got it right the first time.p

Why did you pick this product vs others?: These kind of bits you can feel in ur hand they are made to last

I got a Dewalt router as a gift, then purchased this bit set after seeing several reviews and recommendations on YouTube. My first project was to route out some insets for hinges on a folding table. The bits are very sharp, making short work of the project. The key to easy routing is not to cut too deep with each pass. These bits are a bit pricey, but if you want quality bits that will work for quite a while, these are them.

Whiteside are the best router bits period. Great set

These work great and will last a long time. The carry case is nice. My only compliant is that, unlike a Freud and others, they do not label the bits with graphic of the cut AND more importantly they do not label the bit with dimensions. Other than that great stuff here

After buying a Ryobi set of router bits, I assumed that no matter what I bought I would always end up having to sand the routed surface. After doing a little research and reading some reviews, I found that that is not the case and most professionals agreed that Whiteside bits were the best out there and were reasonably priced. After buying this set and testing them I agree whole-heartedly. The Ryobi bits are a piece of junk. The Whiteside bits are awesome! They don't require ANY sanding after routing. The routed surface is so smooth you could almost see a shine in some woods. I definitely believe that you get what you pay for and in this case, you get more than what you pay for.

Whiteside is among the very best you can buy, and people that know routing will undoubtedly agree. You won't regret buying them The bonus is that this is, in fact, an excellent selection of bits for someone just getting their feet wet. They are all bits that you're likely to use again and again. You can buy a bigger selection for a lot less money here or at the big box store, but you'll end up with a bunch of cheap bits, most of which you'll use once and never need again. Ask youself, do you want a $3 bit spinning at 25,000 rpm, inches in front of your face? I have no connection to Whiteside or anyone else, just impressed with the quality and selection in this set. P.S. Whiteside, how about putting some labeling in the box with these bits? C'mon, give us a break!

Make a lot of different items in my wood shop and have found that white side router bits are the best there are when it comes to woodworking!
