3 and 1 Flush Trim Bit

teejg · Feb 29, 2012

Hello,

I am building some counter tops.

I found this 3 and 1 Flush Trim Bit on amazon (CMT 807.128.11) and the plastic guide looks like a great idea. I have 2 questions.

1. Can this bit be used for trimming the counter top edges of the laminate before applying the large surface pieces? I am concerned about the 3 degree shear angle.

2. Is the plastic guide really better than full bearing contact or are there negative aspects to the plastic guide?

Thanks,
Tom

HI Tom

I have not used the Delrin Triangular bearings ones but I use the square type and they are great, I would not use it on the edge until the laminate is in place you will have a small gap under the laminate.
