Summary: Advice on choosing the correct router bit to make shapes and cuts for all sorts of woodworking projects. How to determine which bits are best suited to your needs.
After reading our project on using a router, we felt is was sensible to give you some idea of the types of router bit available from Builders Merchants and DIY Stores.
Each bit shown here will give you a different shape or "molding" and a very ordinary piece of timber can be turned into a piece of bespoke furniture quite easily.
The shape of each individual router bit can be seen from the bit itself and the shape it produces on the timber can be seen underneath.
For more information on forming timber joints, click on the link. There are a few pages of information so click between them to get a full idea of how to create your perfect timber project.
