    Hold onto your toes.. this bit is a monster. It cleans up nicely.. switching over to half inch shanks so Im very impressed with the craftsmanship this bit provides..

    I have dived into bowl/tray routing by necessity. A friend asked me to make a very specific item that is a game board (Michigan Runny) that looks like a snack tray; 1 center depression surrounded by eight depressions of which two are larger than the rest. Template made out of 1/2 inch ply. Having never done this before I researched the net for help, and of course found more than I could digest. Actually ordered a Freud bowl bit with no bearing guide and realized what Id done and cancelled it. I ordered the Whiteside. Received it promptly via Prime. Opened and inspected the bit. Solid, sharp, good bearing. Began (slowly) routing using a Porter Cable router via the template in 1.25 thick butternut, a softer wood compared to most hardwoods. The bit performed flawlessly, and ate through the butternut like it wasnt there using 1/8 or less passes. Very, very pleased with the bit. The only thing Ive done is drop a few drops of machine oil into the bearing as the bit was getting hot after continued passes. That helped, but heat is still an issue and one just has to take their time in order to not overheat the bit. One thing... The radius of the bearing should be taken into consideration when purchasing. Only due to the fact that it is so large it may NOT fit the corners you need for your project. This happened to me, but the difference was so slight I decided to keep the new radius in some of the corners. Just sayin Project not complete, as I needed a collet extension to finish. Maybe today, and if I remember Ill come back and post a pic! If the size is right, BUY THIS BIT! I have other Whiteside bits and I love em!

    Very nice bit, though theres a bit of technique to learn in using it. The picture is for a different part; the 1376B is much wider and has a bearing. If you plan on building templates for using this bit, consider something like the 3018 bit as well for making the templates, and saving this bit for the actual work.

    Not disappointed with the quality Ive come to expect from bits from Whiteside bits.

    Ive had really good luck with Whiteside bits. This one didnt disappoint. I needed to create depressions to hold loose items on my drill press cabinet and this bit worked great in the Baltic birch plywood with no chip-out and nice smooth rectangular depression. For deeper bowls youll probably want to add a bit extension.

    I must have 10 different Whiteside Router bits. Their my go to bits, period! I do have in addition Amana, Bosch as well brands. But find White the bit for Bowl and bit work especially. This bowl and dish bit is not sharp or the angle of machining is off. It started work on for a 10 inch pass then started skipping all over the place. The bit is on the way back to Amazon and most likely Ill get the same but that Im pretty sure will work as per its design. Very Dissatisfied in all my years of Woodworking Ive never had an issue with a router bit except for a few when I first started the hobby using Skill brand.... If you look carefully I used a different bowl and dish bit routing the the surface but staying away from the edge. Why because its not the type of Bowl but with the correct angle I want on the entire edge. You can see how the bit Im returning scored/burnt the surface and skipped all over. I would recommend to anyone thinking about purchasing a Whiteside brand of anything really not to be perturbed they normally make long lasting precise accessories for the pros or if your into using em as a Woodworking hobby.

    This second project was hard Maple. Carved out 1/2” deep compartment. I am so impressed with how sharp these bits are. No tear out in the corners.
