3 Piece Premier Adjustable Cabinet Bit Set
From the Manufacturer
This new 3-Piece Door Bit Set combines the New 99-761 Premier Adjustable Rail and Stile bits along with the 99-569 2+2 raised panel bit with backcutter. This set allows the woodworker to build doors from 5/8 inch to 1-1/4 inch thickness and ANY length long tenon construction for rock-solid joints that last a lifetime. Top portion of cutter, including bearing and spindle, is removed to produce the front of the long tenon profile for blind tenons, through tenons, or bridle joints. Imagine creating rattle free flat panel doors. Adjustable shims enable both a tight fit when using plywood panels and the ability to use thick panels ( from 5.5mm to 6.35mm ). The unique cutter geometry virtually eliminates tearout. This set features Freud's 99-569 2 + 2 raised panel bit w/backcutter. Two small wings that cut downward and two large wings that shear upward, produce an extremely smooth cut in hardwoods, softwoods and even plywoods. This revolutionary design is combined with a backcutter so that, in one step, you can create a flawless raised panel door that is flush with the frame on both sides. Bits feature Freud's Perma-Shield coating to resist heat and pitch build up along with rust, and Freud's TiCo Hi-Density Carbide to maximize bit life and material finish. This set is designed for use on table-mounted portable routers. Optional cutters are available for double sided profile doors (99-861) and glass panel doors (54-760) with variable thicknesses and long tenons for perfecting matching profiles on all doors because it's the same set of router bits. This set produces an Ogee profile on the rail and stile and a cove profile on the panel bit. All bits are 1/2 inch with , plus set comes with an attractive wooden storage box with instructional poster.

The tolerance on the bits is very tight. I milled up 20 raised panel doors out of MDF and they are spot on. Joints fit very tight and square. I dry fit one door together and they fit so tight I had to use a spreader to get them apart! The panel bit is quite large. It cuts the face and back in one pass. You will need a large router to power it, I wouldn’t use anything less than 2 HP. Very pleased with the results.

Great blades reason for 4 stars, but would've been nice to have received the instructions and CD that is supposed to be included. Phone number for customer support is wrong in Amazon, it's actually a landscaper on east coast. Went to Freud website, downloads are not the same as another person posted in the reviews.Update on getting instructions: you have to create an account on the Freud website, go to products, find the bit set, click on downloads and they have the full-on set of instructions shown in the reviews. Phew!

This is a quality set. The rail and stiles bits cut clean and are long lasting. The panel raising bit cuts clean in all grain direction. I just finished 25 hard maple raised panel doors with this set and was happy with the results. Worth the price. The instructions have the proper settings for speed; follow the instructions.

Amazing router bits. I will never get cheap bits again. You definitely get what you pay for when it comes to router bits. I went through 2 other sets of the cheap bits here on Amazon and both burned the wood. Then I broke down and spent the money on these and omg they went through the wood like butter without any burn marks. Quality beats quantity any day. From now on I will only get the best and not have to worry about if they will get the job done or not.

It's pretty costly if you're going to make 3 or 4 cabinet doors. But it works great. Good instruction on how to use it, how to set it up for all kinds of situations, too. And it makes beautiful raised panel doors.

I typically like Freud products. The bits are sharp and long lasting. Those traits appear to be true for this set. Unfortunately, the profile of the stile and rail cutters are not an exact match. When door is assembled with the rails and stiles in the same plane (a flat door), there is about 1/32 gap on the front side. When gluing and clamping this gap causes the door frame to be misaligned. I assume this is why there are instructions for an optional extended tenon, which is a very complex task. For a company with Freud's reputation, I would have expected the pieces to align.The second problem with this set is the lack of a back-cutter for the raised panel bit. They don't tell you this. In order to assemble the door, you need to separately route the back cut. The set is useable, but to make a quality door, you have to do a lot of extra work to make up for their poor design.Lastly, the instructions are generic for all of their cabinet door sets. You have to figure out what to do when your set is different. Also, the formulas for stile, rail and panel dimensions are written out in sentences in small print. The instruction pamphlet is not available online, which would at least allow for zooming in to read it.I am truly disappointed.

The only trouble I had was finding the recommended rpm for the different bits.

This is a great set of versatile panel bits, because you can use various thickness woods. I had made raised panel doors by table saw, and had to sand forever. No need with these bits. I have the big Milwaukee 5625 router I set up with my linear actuator ( diy router lift) and swing the panel bit at the 12000 setting...... it did an awesome job! The cope and stick bits took a little time, trial and error with scrap pieces, to set up. They all do.... but the big difference for me in these bits, is that once I got them aligned, they were deadly, deadly accurate. You have so much going on in raised panel doors with spacing that you really appreciate that accuracy. Not always so with cheaper bits- and you don't need it for simple profiles, but you cannot live without it in cabinet doors.I buy mostly Freud and Lee Valley bits in that order. My first choice is Freud, and if they don't make it I go to Lee Valley, which is a close second. In my opinion, Freud is the best at machining their bits.I have tried a few cheaper ones, and have always ended up disappointed, so I have come to the conclusion to spend the extra money. I also hear Rockler, Infinity and a few others are very good. I was satisfied with Freud, and stayed. Hope this helps someone.and walk away happier.

To use this bit set properly, you need at least 2 1/2 HP router with variable speed. 3 or more HP is recommended but variable speed control is a must have.For best result you have to adjust rpm: 17500rpm for rail and stile bits, 12000rpm for panel bit. Variable speed is much more important that HP.If you don't set the rpm as recommended in DVD, which is included, it's possible for you to get injured or mass up the work.Good router table is also a must.Instruction DVD is very helpful to avoid any injuries and to get good result. I tried to used this bit without watching DVD, all work pieces were massed up and hurt my fingers. After watching DVD, everything goes flawlessly. I made a real nice panel door from the first try by following the instruction on DVD.You may need good clamp set for glueing rails and stiles.Recommend this set to anyone who wants to make cabinet doors.Back cutter in the panel bit helps a lot to make the door in good shape.Spend few more bucks to get the bit with back cutter.
