Bearing Number: B3 (included) Three Wing Raised Panel router bits provide a smoother cut then Two Wing Raised Panel cutters.
Construction: Choose stock size as appropriate for your project. For example, 3/4" X 2" Stile and Rails and 5/8" thick panels (without optional back cut) are common for cabinet doors. Use the Stile bit to cut the entire length of the inside edge on both the Stiles and the Rails. Use the Rail bits to make the matching cross grain end cuts on the Rails only. Use the Raised Panel bit to cut all four sides of each Raised Panel faced down on the router table. Set Raised Panel bit height for proper tongue thickness. Tongue thickness should be 1/4" for the full size Stile & Rail bits or 5/32" for the miniature ones. Allow extra stock if you plan to use the optional back cutter. Use the Standard Glue Joint or biscuits for added strength when gluing up larger panels. Cut all components and test fit. Then glue up and reassemble. Glue only the Stile and Rail joints. The panels should be allowed to float to allow for expansion and contraction. Check the door for square immediately after gluing up. It may be helpful to pre-stain the raised panel because part of the concealed portion of the tongue may become visible later due to contraction. Complete the door by adding a door edge pattern around the outside edge. To Vertical Raised Panel Router Bits To Biscuit Joining Router Bits |
