Hi, went to my first wood show yesterday..Man o man my head is still spinning with all that neat stuff that i think, i need, to do the job right.
I bought a wood set for putting hard wood on the edge of plywood.I seen Bob use a birds mouth bit, I think. the folks at the show helped me to buy a bit that is supposed to touch 90% of the glue surface. They said it is a new bit that they make.the bit was at the Freud place but its not a freud. The plywood bit has a bearing on it ,when I lined up the bearing flush with the fence and took my 3/4 ply through it ,It dug in so much that there was a 1/16 to 1/8 gap on the other side of the fence between the work and the fence.. I didnt even try the hard wood bit because i dont think i am doing something right.. THE profile of the bit is square in the center and angles out to the edges.. Does any body know what this bit is called and How do I use it???????? thanks
