Customer Reviews (4.2 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Ellie U. ★★★★★

Was finally able to dial in the Maloof joint without any tear-out—the carbide edges are holding up great after a dozen chairs. The +5° taper locks in nice and snug every time.

Owen ★★★★★

The +5° taper made dialing in that Maloof joint incredibly smooth on my first try. Cuts are clean and the bit holds up beautifully through multiple chair builds without any burning.

Leo P. ★★★★☆

Cut clean and left a smooth surface on my first practice joint, which saved me a lot of sanding time. The only thing is the bearing could run a touch quieter, but it's not a dealbreaker for the precision you get.
