Foos Straight Carbide Router bits - 1/4” Shank - USA Veteran Owned (1/4 Cutting Diameter)

Good price doesn’t last long on oak lumber

this router bit broke almost immediately when routing cherry (not a hard wood). i did complain to the supplier, and he agreed to refund the money. but he never did this after the first complaint to him (right after the bit was purchased) nor after i sent him another message 2 months later. He does not seem to honor his agreement. and the bit was useless

I rarely leave a review, but for this bit is different. you can really feel the difference, cut is fast, smooth, precise. True, it cost more than other bits but it really worth it. Rob.

Used it to cut dados in plywood. Worked like a champ.

Just what I needed. Arrived in good time and in good condition.

It took 2 weeks from order to delivery, but Im very satisfied with everything else. I ordered the 3/16 bit. I used it to make some 3/4 + deep dados. I was cutting soft wood and it was effortless. I cut about 1/4 deep per pass: its bad practice to cut too much in one pass. They didnt have a 3/16 at the local hardware store and the other 3/16 bits offered here on Amazon either didnt go deep enough or they were HSS instead of carbide like this one. Carbide bits are better.

I got this bit to replace a name brand bit that went from new to dull in a single project. I was naturally concerned about performance of a “cheap” bit, but am tired of even expensive bits going dull relatively quickly. I used this bit this evening to batch cut 72 slots in some hardwood and it was cutting as true and clean on the last slot as it was when I made the first cut. I am impressed that it outperformed an identical name brand bit! I will definitely be looking to this brand for other bits as well!

Good quality at a fair price. Ive only cut a few feet of 1/8 x 1/4dado in Baltic birch so far, but cuts are crisp and bit shows no wear. Ill be checking Foos first for future bit orders. Nice to see a US manufacturer offer such quality and value.
