AGE Series MD502 3-Pc Ogee Raised Panel Door Making Set with Back Cutter

Producto cumple 100% con lo esperado tengo años de usarlo y aún sigue muy bien

Upon receipt of the tool set I found the Center bearing cutter to be damaged. The extra bearing was just loose in the wooden box just thrashing about. Whether the loose bearing chipped the carbides or not I have no idea. Replacement set came very fast and was perfect, no flaws. First set was returned.

A great set. The setup is simple once you get the hang of it. Do yourself a favor and follow the instructions. Use the bits in the order given. Always use the coping bit (bearing in between cutters) to cut the ends of the rails. Always rout the ends first to minimize tear out. Then use the other one of the two matched bits (bearing on top) to cut all the grooves on the sides of the rails and stiles, to accept the panel. Use the raised panel bit with the back-cutter on all four sides of the panel.Note: Dont trivialize that 3/32 in shoulder. The door won’t look right otherwise.

Received this set and was excited to start my project. I set router speed per included instructions and decided I would make templates out of soft pine to make future set up faster. I made each template using multiple shallow passes as per instructions. After running about 8 feet of pine through the bits getting everything set up correctly and templates made I noticed the bearings have already locked up. The bits came sharp and my only complaint is poor bearings. I plan to send this set in for replacement hopefully it's just a simple QA problem and not a brand issue.

I am not a woodworker or carpenter, nor do really have a lot of experience in the area in general. I do enjoy DIY projects from time to time, and had a need for a large cabinet door that would have required a special order- so I decided to give these bits a try. In short. the cabinet door looks great- making me look good in the process. If you are familiar with woodworking in general and routers in particular, you will get great results with these. If you are more like me, you will want to try the bits out on a few scrap pieces of wood to get an idea of the proper speed to feed the wood, how each piece will fit, etc. The precision on these is amazing- the fit on the finished pieces is so tight the door will stay snugly together even before glue.

I am a professional woodworker. I bought these for building a room full of wainscoting panels. I was a bit skeptical of this being a budget line offered by Amana. However, these were the only ones available at the time. I was impressed by the quality of the cutters. Great value for the money.

There were no instructions on how to set the height of the bits. Ruined a few pieces of wood before figuring it out. Also got some tearout. Not what I would expect for the price.

I can't say enough about these. Though the instructions aren't great, after much trial and error, I managed to figure it out. I'm a hobby woodworker and I'm always wanted to try these. I made my first set of 51" x 17" doors and they came out looking like a master carpenter made them. I shopped around and they were the best price for the reviews and quality. The previous positive reviews didn't lie. I can see myself wearing these out and buying the same thing in a year or two. They won't disappoint.
