11/16인치 스트레이트 라우터 비트 x 3/4인치 LOC – Whiteside 1029 (AstraHP 코팅)

Took this bit out of the package and ran it through some oak—the carbide cut through like butter, leaving a perfectly smooth edge. The 11/16" diameter was just right for the dadoes I needed, and the coating seems to be holding up well so far.

The coating on this bit really does help the chips clear out, I ran it through some red oak and the finish was practically sanded already. It's noticeably sharper than the cheap set I was using before.

Used it for a batch of dado cuts in hardwood plywood and the 3/4-inch length of cut handled the depth perfectly without any burning. The AstraHP coating kept the bit sliding through cleanly, and the edge finish came out smooth enough that I skipped sanding entirely.
