    its the same if you use router bits for wood / plastic or endmills for wood / plastic / metal
    Downcut: the "chip" moves FROM the mounting chank TOWARDS the tip of the cutter.
    Upcut: the "chip" moves FROM the Tip of the cutter TOWARDS the mounting chank.
    For easy recognision an ordinary twist drill is 99% of the time UPCUT. so if the spiral in the cutter is reverse in comparision its an Downcut. remember to take note of the "cutting edge" on the spiral, since there is cutters for COUNTER clockwise rotation (CCW) but in the home shop those are rare.

    The bending stiffness of a rod is proportional to the cube of the diameter. That's why one should use a larger bit and shank whenever possible.

    I always look at the upcut and downcut bits as pushing the sawdust into the cavity or pulling the sawdust out of the cavity. It works the same upside down or not.

    When it comes routing, don't nudge it, don't bump it, don't ram it. Dust is rubbing and rubbing is routing! (sry bad DoT reference) Rubbing is bad mmkay. To the serious comment; I never thought about it being too fast! I'll definitely try slowing my router speed down. Thank you both Jay and Bits and Bits! Not really a glamorous topic, but definitely a necessary one for anyone using a router. Thanks again!

    Thanks for the video. I do have one comment. Years ago we did wood frames for recessed lighting in kitchens. The frames might be as small as 4 x 4 or as big as 10 x 20 feet. Most of the time the edges were routed with a cove or a round over bit. I did probably more than a hundred thousand feet of routering. We always used a climb cut because we would never get any tearout. If we routed into the grain, tearout was real possibility that would either ruin the frame or cause a significant delay in production. If I am not removing much material, I still always use a climb cut to prevent tearout.

    I've used 1/4" upcut spirals for several years now. Appreciate your take on using 1/2" bits in my tables, tho. I have Bosch 1617's in my tables (2 1/4 HP, soft start, variable speed). I will certainly look for a 1/2" shank for my tables.
    It should have been a freaking no-brainer. I use 1/2" shank bits almost exclusively in my tables, as there is 4 times the material in the shank of a 1/2" unit when compared to a 1/4" unit. Dooh!

  • @mikemoore4443
    @mikemoore4443 Pƙed rokem

    You corrected yourself with the notes but the issue with 1/4” bits is they are less stiff. All solid carbide bits are more brittle than a steel shanked bit with carbide cutters. This only becomes an issue on the less stiff 1/4” bits. This is one benefit of straight bits as well as being easy to sharpen and being much cheaper.

    I am in the process of making "plantation shutters, and getting a fair amount of tear-out when making the slats, which required a lot of sanding, distorting the camber on both sides of the slats. I have always run the router at full speed. Because of your comment about starting slow and increasing speed to find the "sweet spot" I now believe if I slow the speed and work up (or in) with a shallower cut, I will get a much smoother finish. Thanks for the info. You always do a great job with your video's.

  • @boblangford1860
    @boblangford1860 Pƙed rokem

    Very nice summary, Jay. Would it make sense to do a template cut in two passes, first with a 1/2 inch diameter bit, and then if there are tight inside curves that the 1/2 inch bit couldn't reach, do another pass with a 1/4 inch bit to clean those out? Seems like it would work just fine, but I haven't tried it yet.

  • @olivier2553
    @olivier2553 Pƙed rokem

    You use a slower speed with larger diameter bit because it is not the RPM that matters but the speed of the cutting edge on the wood. With tweo bits are used at the same RPM, if one bit is twice as large as the other one the cutting edge will run twice as fast too.

    • @JayBates

      Correct. But chipload is still a thing.

  • @paulsmyers203
    @paulsmyers203 Pƙed rokem

    Rather than "up" or "down" which can be reversed by reorienting the bit, maybe they should be referenced by the end of the bit that the waste moves toward. "Tip flow" and "shank flow". Then it wouldn't matter which direction the bit was pointed, the flow of waste material can always be referenced the same way.

    I was not aware that compression bit had a maximum material dimension. Does anyone know if it is less than 1/16 inch that is typical for band saw templated part? Great video.

    • @JayBates
      @JayBates  Pƙed rokem +1

      1/16 is good. In CNC terms, I'd prefer around 66% stepover for pocketing. So translating that to the amount of material after rough cutting a template trace, I'd say stick to half the diameter of the bit or less.

    • @JayBates
      @JayBates  Pƙed rokem +1

      It's hard to make blanket recommendations like that because we all work differently and value stuff differently. For example, when I first started woodworking I liked to use the Ogee bit on sooo much stuff. I don't think I've used it in the past 5 years. My recommendation is to look at what you want to accomplish and buy according to what will help get that done.
