Freud 99-015: 1-1/16" (Dia.) Face Molding Bit with 1/2" Shank, Perma-SHIELD Coating Red

That router bit worked well. Needed to rebuild a cabinet.

So I’m new to routing. Why? Because trim boards will run me an arm and a leg if I plan to buy them at a hardware store, plus the selection is very limited.Why did I purchase this specific bit? The name and the profile.. I will warn you that you really want to do multiple shallow passes with a decent router. I believe these are more for those CNC set ups, but you can definitely do it with a router, just take your time.

The cuts look like add-on molding and not something you could route on wood. I router 8/4 Popular wood. It even has a protective plastic storage box so it won't bang around the tool draw. I routed 85 ft. and the bit hasn't even lost the paint off it. There was no burn or chatter.

I tried two other brands and this one was the smoothest of the three

top quality

I used this to make decorative blocks for base molding on door trim. They turned out well. Just follow the directions and use a router table.

Nothing but 5 stars for this. Extremely well made, and the longevity of the bit is so impressive. I have put a ton of lumber through this bit for custom architecture plinth blocks. It cuts smooth every time, not one single complaint.

Used it to make a custom oak plinth block, cutting end grain. With multiple shallow passes it made a nice clean cut.
