Hi graydocs
The one I recommend is the SOMMERFELD'S OWN Tongue & Groove Cabinetmaking Set
3-Piece Tongue & Groove Cabinetmaking Set
http://www.sommerfeldtools.com/products.asp?ID=202
It's not cheap about 100.oo but if you buy two of the standard T & G sets to do the same type of job you will save money in the long run.
Standard sets go for about 60.oo ea. and they will only cut to a max of 3/4" with the tongue on center.
It's a great set and it comes with a FREE DVD/VHS to show you how to make cabinets and how to use the bits.
It's also comes with the standard 19mm bearing (2ea.)and shims (4ea.) plus a rubber gromet for the router collet nut (see video) , so you can use it for the standard T & G setup.
The set comes with OVER Size bearing so you cut a 1/4" deep slot unlike the stantard T & G sets,(7/16" deep slot the norm)
Out of all the sets of router bits I have this is the BEST ONE I Have and use it all the time for many jobs, like table tops,face frames,cabinets,side panels,doors,dust shelf, book cases,face plywood edge and on and on .
This one bits set will fill 80% of your router bit needs.
You can also just get the video in VHS or DVD and it's worth the price (10.oo)
Just to make sure b/4 you want to drop a 100.oo for some router bits but I'm sure you will once you see how easy it is to do with the right bit set.
