There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The package housing the bits was filled with packing peanuts, which was likely done to mitigate any damage caused by the bits dislodging and bouncing around inside the package during shipping. I'm pretty sure the shipper did this, as none of the Freud bits that I see at my local Woodcraft have these peanuts inside the packaging. I appreciate this extra effort.
I normally try to stick with Whiteside for my router bits, but I am pleased with these Freud bits. I could not find a Whiteside offering that was adjustable and competitively priced. I have no regrets though!
This bit set is good but for a DIY'er practice is needed. I made a few nominal mistakes along the way. In hindsight it would have been best to route all 20 pieces at one time, i.e, doing the groove and then the tongue as one logical unit. Instead, I did enough at a time for a days work and came back to it the next day. The result was that the consistency was slightly off. This did not affect the outcome , but it would have been preferably to make all the cuts first and get more precise uniformity across the board.
The bits are good but as an amateur my technique was on a learning curve. Subsequently I chipped a bit just a little, my bad. Overall the job turned out great and I was very happy in the end with this purchase although I'm not really looking forward to anymore porch repair.
Top reviews from other countries
My only gripes are they can be tough to initially get out of the case (wear gloves as they are super sharp!) And the instructions are not entirely easy to read. A little trial and error solved some problems but there doesn't seem to be any further explanation of how to read their chart online. I couldn't tell which shims were which size but maybe I'm just a little new at this.
I would also mention that it is a very tall bit so it would be ideal to have router fence with a larger opening height wise to get the most versatility out of it.
Overall feels like a professional product.
