CMT router bits are some of the best carbide tipped bits on the market. If you are needing new bits for your router, then you may just want to give these router bits a try. These bits are strong and durable enough to do even the toughest job you have to offer.

You can find these bits in any type of tip that you need from spirals to window sill bits. When it comes to performance, you want the very best that can be attained.

These bits are made from solid steel bars. By using a hot drawing process, all the fibers in the steel are pulled to one direction. This results in strong and resilient bars in which the tips are then created from. This allows the bits to be able to withstand whatever project that you put before it. There are many places that you can find these bits.

Whether it is a local specialty store or an online store, you are sure to get a bit with the performance that you would expect. If you are not sure which is the best bit for you, then many of these websites can offer comparison shopping. They will also offer tips for which bit is the right bit for the job.

Today's Discussion

My carpenter as asked me to get a tool for him to use, I need help figuring out what it is?
He's Amish, and I can't call him to get clarification on this (and I won't be seeing him again for a few days). Here is what is on the note he gave me: 1" Concave Shaper Cutter with Carbide Tip and 1/2" Mandrel. He's renovating our stair case and I think it's for molding.? Okay, so I've researched as best I can, and found this web page at todaystools.com: If someone would be kind enough to look at that page and tell me which cutter is the proper one, I'd be so grateful. I'm wondering if it's the one that is $95.48 or the one below it. I don't know which part of the cutter is supposed to be 1", and how to tell if the mandrel is 1/2" (really I don't know for sure what a mandrel is). If anyone could help me figure this out I'd really appreciate it. Oh my goodness! For those answerers who are upset that my carpenter has asked me to "buy his tools" for him or "he can't be good if he doesn't have the proper tools"......we are more than homeowner/carpenter...we are friends, have been for years. He has one of these cutters already, but it is dull. I offered - okay - offered to go to town and pick one of these up for him. It's an hour to a town big enough to have a decent hardware store WITH A CAR, imagine how long it would be with a horse and buggy. Also, he gave me $150 of his own money to buy this. Alright? Is everybody happy now? These details weren't necessary in order to answer the question, but I am providing them now in answer to the hateful comments about a good, Christian man who has done much much more for my husband and me than what a trip to town to pick up a tool could possibly pay back. To those of you who actually answered, I do thank you.

To the first responder: The Amish have no computers or internet. No phone to call him. Obviously she would do this is he was at her place eh?

I think, especially with the expense of the bit and mandrel, you need to qualify what he wants. A 1" concave shaper cutter could be for a myriad of different shapes the Mandrel is a separate item that is a drum that holds a piece of sandpaper or a bit..... (see bottom of page) Not knowing if he is looking to make the 1/4 round or the bullnose has me stumped.

= I suggest you show him what you've found so far and let him pick it..... you're going to buy a tool you'll never use again for this job?.... strange.... perhaps you can trade him the tool for part of the cost?....

If I had a carpenter working on my house, I would tell him to bring his own tools. He cant be very good if he doesnt have the proper tools.

I would ask your carpenter exactly what he is needing the cutter for. There is more than one 1 inch concave cutter on that web page. Or, better yet: Take him to town with you and let him pick up the cutter. I get that he is Amish, by the way (unlike a lot of other answerers)....and that a little "extra" is needed when dealing with him is probably in order. But my own experience with Amish carpenters has helped me understand that any "extra" is definitely worth it. Amazing craftsmanship!

Go to Home Depot and ask. Somone there must know.

You might find the answer hear : http:www.specialistmats.co.uk

i think he wants a Sand paper part but im not sure and you re best hope of doing this is to go to home depot or Lowe's and ask someone there and they will help you out a whole lot

George
He wants the bullnose, I think. The first link below is very close to the exact cutter he wants. Note, you will NOT find this sort of stuff at Home Depot or Lowe's - they cater to the DIY'er and standard construction, which a shaper is not. This tends to be a specialty store item One problem, shapers seem to come with .75" and 1.25" bores. and no arbor to neck them down. If he wants to use a 1/2" router or the smaller Jet shaper, get Amana, CMT, or Bosch (yes, like the spark plugs) router bits. EXCELLENT TOOLS. You can find a 1" bullnose with a 1/2" shank (third reference). There are plenty of other sources. Carbide quality DOES vary. Sears sells carbide tools. Used one once, and never again. High Speed Steel (HSS) would have been better. The man sounds honest - I've been in his situation. The Amish community has an impeccable reputation. Work with him, and he will work with you (my best guess). Check with him before you buy! Good Luck!
