Abstract
A router bit for forming the edges of a raised door panel which includes a rotatable drive shaft, a profile cutter fixed to the drive shaft, and a back cutter fixed to the drive shaft for rotation therewith. A cylindrically-shaped pilot member is disposed intermediate the profile cutter and the back cutter. The pilot member is fixed to the drive shaft for rotation therewith and the exterior surface of the pilot member is coated with a friction-reducing material to reduce or eliminate any significant friction between the exterior surface of the rotating pilot member and the raised door panel.
Claims3
A router bit for forming the edges of a raised door panel which includes a rotatable drive shaft, a profile cutter fixed to said drive shaft for rotation therewith to form a decorative profile at the edge of the raised door panel, a back cutter fixed to said drive shaft for rotation therewith to simultaneously form a back cut relief in the same edge of the raised door panel, and a cylindrically-shaped pilot member disposed intermediate said profile cutter and said back cutter so that the exterior surface of said pilot member can be in abutment with the raised door panel to properly locate the door panel relative to said profile cutter and said back cutter during the cutting of the raised door panel, said pilot member being fixed to said drive shaft for rotation therewith and the exterior surface of said pilot member being coated with a friction reducing material to reduce or eliminate any significant fiction between the exterior surface of the rotating pilot member and the raised door panel.
