hi all,
long time (part time woodworker) here.
i'm making some custom frames for my paintings and one of the frames
calls for the use of a round nose cutter that can cut at least 3/4" deep.
i purchased a whiteside brand round nose bit with a 1/2" shank, 3/4" cutting dia, 1 1/4" cutting length,
having an overall length of 2 7/8".
i installed my pc router onto a router table but when i dropped the bit in the chuck, it bottomed out, and
with the router fully extended the bit protruded about 1/4"to 3/8" abofe the surface of the table.
i have a tendency to "overlook" the obvious, but so far i cannot figure out if i am doing something wrong.
also, i am not happy that the whole motor turns, along with the power switch and cord as i make height adjustments.
any help you provide will be appreciated.
thanks,
