Freud, 99-414 Wide Crown Molding System 1/2'' Shank Router Bit (Upper Profile)

Freud, 99-414 Wide Crown Molding System 1/2'' Shank Router Bit (Upper Profile) 13172

Application:

• Milling 5-1/2" wide Crown Molding for ceilings
• Use only in a router table with minimum 6" high fence, mill in 3 or more passes.
• Use featherboards and hold downs to hold stock down & against the fence.
• Use pusher blocks or a push stick to feed stock. Make test cuts in scrap stock first.

Features:

• Crown molding is the perfect way to transform a room, giving height and elegance to an otherwise ordinary ceiling.
• But commercially manufactured wide crown molding is expensive, hard to find, and the selection of available wood species is very limited.
• Now, thanks to Freud’s unique Wide Crown Molding bits, woodworkers can mill their own 5-1/2" wide Crown Molding economically and in their choice of wood and profile.
• These bits are the only router tooling capable of producing such wide crown molding, and they also feature a carefully designed shape that lets you mix and match profiles to produce precisely the shape you need – up to nine different profiles from only six bits!
• The concept is easy: each bit produces half of the molding profile.
• Three bits are designed for the upper half of the molding, and three produce the lower half.
• Each bit features a sweeping curve that transitions perfectly into the corresponding curve of the adjoining profile.
• Just select the upper and lower profiles that match your favoriedesign.
• Then use Freud’s Molding Bevel Cutter to rout perfect 38° and 52° bevels on the stock to finish the job.
• Mill 5-1/2" wide crown molding from almost any hardwood or softwood.
• Mix and match bits for upper and lower profiles to produce nine different designs.
