The Trend 35 Piece Router Cutter Set and Example Cuts
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 09. 2024
- I recently purchased the WRT Trend Router table and a new Trend T11 Router...and it came with a set of 35 router cutters. I thought it would be good to see what each cutter did...so for reference I filmed each type of cutter in use.
I've edited and uploaded the video on the off chance it may be of use to others. It is in no way meant to be an instructional or how to guide...it's simply a look at each style of cutter that came with the set and the type of cut it can produce.
Most Used Equipment:
Maxicam Cnc Maxi-S 0609A (modified gantry)
Trend WRT Router Table
Trend T11 Router
Axminster Table Saw AW10BSB2
Record Power Bandsaw BS350S
Tormek T7 Grinder
Supertouch - Nitrotouch Gloves
Blackfriar Danish and Kitchen Oils
Duramat Soft Rubber Flooring
Staedtler Pencils :)
I just finished building the handrail on my deck czcams.com/users/postUgkxfQ5_mgwq6PcudJvAH25t-I4D-3cTPz4z and used this great little router to clean up the top rail before the final sanding and stain. It was light weight but packed lots of power. Either size battery didn't seem to make it top heavy and I'm a 64 yr old women so I really appreciated how easy it was to use...................... CORDLESS only way to go !!
Showing the bits and sample cuts
That’s why you’ve gotten so many views
Thank you for your video
Youre welcome. Its a handy little video...took a while to make like haha but it seems to be quite a useful reference video :-)
Oh I want to thank you for making this video, as a complete newbie to the router it is so confusing and a little intimidating when I open the big case of router bits my wife bought me . This video helps out SO SO SO MUCH. JUST A BIG THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE.
Youre welcome :-)
Excellent video, youv'e sold me on a router, must get one. Also a pleasure to watch, no annoying pop up adds, like so many people greedy for more money above what they get from subscribers. Well done.
👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Thanks. Routers are so versatile. First time I used one it felt a bit scary but I use them on every project now. It’s surprising how routering a nice roundover on the edge of a piece of wood can make it look so much more professional 😊
No bs but shows what every bit do, thanks very much!!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
Thanks hugely for this video. It’s rare to see a series of bits and the results they produce, so I’ve book marked this for frequent viewing. Excellent.
Glad it was helpful 👍👍. It took a while to make but I even use the video myself for reference so it was time worth spent 😊👍

Hi I have a Craftsman Router but all my bits did not come with any bearings. There black and just have two sides I guess kinda like wings I know weird 😂 wanted to know your opinion thanks.
I bought this set, the only complaint is the shanks are so stumpy. Not a standard Trend size. Cool video.👍🏻
😊👍
I really appreciate the fact you showed the bit and the corresponding cut. Thank you much
You’re welcome. 👍👍
Thank you Dear Friend you have solve problems and today you have complet my very old wish, This is your good idea for those who want to know and work with accuracy in wood working, Once again thank you
You're welcome, glad it was helpful. :-)
Excellent video. Thank you for showing this and the time it must have taken you
Thanks for your reply Smugwood, it was a pleasure to watch your video.
I learned so much I didn't know. Take care, and God Bless.👍👍👍👍
And you. Many thanks :-)
I decided to buy this set after watching your video, and talking to Trend Tech Support, and it arrived today. As you say, not that great in the foam holders , but glad you mentioned they did the job and of reasonable quality , I was going to buy a much smaller set, and buy what I needed later, BUT at less then £2 a bit, i didn't see how I could go wrong.
Most videos of "must have Bits" seem to mention the bits in this Kit , with the exception of a rebate bit , which I should get by using the straight cutters for now, and , if needed will get a rebate with various sized bearings
Yeah that foam isn’t great which is a shame because the box is great. But other than that I find they’re great cutters. I also tend to buy the 1/4” set too and just buy the odd one or two specialist cutters I may need at times.
Keep in mind that out of the 35 bits in this set there are at least 25 that you’re not likely to ever use or at least very infrequently use. Better off to buy a smaller more basic set and add individual specialty bits as needed.
That's true for many. But I have to admit...I bought the set just to use a couple but have since used the majority.
Great video and very helpful, you were taking a fair bit away with each pass there which is good. What’s even better is they work out at less than £2 each! I bought a very cheap generic 6 piece set for my big router and then built up from there, for my palm router I bought a 19 piece set which has worked out to be far better. If I was buying routers for my table again I think I’d start with something like this.
Yeah it’s a great set. Actually using it now to make a coaster 😂. Like you say...works out around a couple of quid for a bit which really is nothing. It’s rare I buy individual bits as I mostly use roundovers and luckily kits like this have several. 👍
Excellent video. Thanks for sharing it with us.
You're very welcome :-)
Just an observation you should change the ring size to the one that's closest to diameter of bit as it would be safer for u using
They seem to be a good cutting set of bits and the table looks nice also. I’ve never heard to trend before I’ll have to check them out
So far they’ve been great. But Trend are one of the main router bit suppliers so quality is usually pretty good 👍
Thank you for the video that gives a great perspective on each bit on what it actually can do👍
No problem. Glad it was helpful 😊👍
Excellent idea and amazing information, I like your efforts, Thank you for providing me the best knowledge and video, Zafar from Quetta Pakistan
You're most welcome and glad it was helpful :-)
Thx for the video on how bits works and their designs
Hi I a question I have a Craftsman Router it came with I guess u would call them a two wing cause they only have two sides and the color of them are black if that is any help I am actually learning about Routing the case did not come with any bearings also it came with two black guide like plates I don't know any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
Hi. Difficult to say really without a picture as I’m not familiar with the craftsman. I’ve another video called cutting a hole with a router...maybe worth taking a look and see if anything I use there is what you’re describing?
This was so helpful! Thanks!
You’re welcome 👍
Thanks you so much. Great, short and clear video, just what i need :).
You're welcome. Thanks for watching :-)
Just LUV watching 🤗🤝👍
Thanks :-)
I too purchased the Trend router bits. However my very first time using the 1/4" straight bit..IT BROKE. The 1/2" shaft is fine but now the cutter part is maybe 1/4" in length. Worthless. Guess one gets what they pay for. Live and learn.
Id say definitely worth contacting Trend if there's an issue. I'll admit, I haven't had any break in the years I've used them, but I did once have a CNC bit break and Trend sent me a new one and I sent the damaged one back so they could check it :-)
@@Smugwood I have contacted Trend on their website which it appears is registered In the U.K. I will simply wait to see if anyone does in fact reply to my concern. In the mean time, I ordered a similar bit from Freud. Certainly it cost more and my expectation is that it will not break. But, expectations are little more than premeditated resentments. I hope Trend replies favorably. As I mentioned in my notice to Trend, the other 34 bits still have the protective coating/plastic film covering each one. I appreciate your reply.
@@jamessmetana6405 No worries. A lot of people commenting on here think I work for or endorse Trend but I just used the set to demo each bit in use. But I do use the bits a lot and so far have good use out of pretty much the entire set with no issues. So it’s certainly worth you contacting them just incase there was an issue or fault with the cutter. I’d like to hope they’ll reply. 👍
@@Smugwood I contacted Trend-USA and sent photos as well as an explanation of my issue to their technical department. I will wait for their reply and keep you posted. I did finish my project utilizing the 1/2" straight bit by relocating the Milescraft Circular jig to accommodate the variance in cutter diameter. I will admit that router bit worked flawlessly. Stay tuned for any further updates.
UPDATE. December 8, 2020. I received an email today that Trend is sending a replacement bit for the one that broke. The company obviously cherishes their reputation and stands behind their guarantee. Indeed. a very decent purchase and a very competitive price. I am simply a hobbyist...not a professional. As a retired pharmacist, I realize the importance of your word being valued. And being true to your word.
Que buena guía de aprendizaje no sabía cuántas cosas se pueden hacer con las diferentes fresas 😻👍
Nice set of cutters! Clean work!
Yeah I have good success with the Trend cutters. Can’t really fault them.
Music so good I forgot I was watching a video on router bits 😂
Haha thanks 😊. My music is like Marmite...people either love it or hate it 😂.
thanks for linking to this vid. it was educational.
No probs. I still use it for reference myself :-)
Hi great video. Good too see what different bits do. thanks from a newbie.
Thanks Martin, always nice to know the videos are a help to others. I use a router pretty much every day...and there was one or two cutters in there that I'd not heard of before, so it was definitely worth while testing them all out :)
thank you for such a detailed explanation... Right???
You are most welcome
I like this kind of videos..
Without talking..talking..talking?????
Trash.......
Nicely Done ✅
Thanks 😊👍
Plywood konsa h bro
Very helpful. Thanks
Glad it was helpful 😊👍
Köszönöm legalább tudom nekik mijen formát hagy és sikerült a fejét is beállítani.
No problem. Thanks for watching. 😊👍
very good video, my congratulations.
I would like you to help me with a question:
I want to know if you make or can recommend who can manufacture custom router bits according to my product draws.
Im sorry, im not sure I know of anybody. Im guessing there are companies out there but its not my field of expertise :-)
Cần những công cụ Đạt chuẩn như thế mới có thể thể hiện hết tài năng của người thợ thích lắm nha
Brilliant. Thanks
You’re very welcome 😊👍
Please aap poore set ka price btaoghy
Prices can vary...I bought mine online.
Bilgilendirici bir video olmuş, teşekkürler
You're Welcome
Where can I buy this set of blades and they make shipments to Panama
I bought mine online. Ive no idea of the shipping etc but im assuming most places should offer shipping anywhere?
@@Smugwood You can send me the link to find the product and the catalog number and how much is the cost and country of location.

Just PERFECT
Dahmane Mt
hi,thankz for dat but where can we buy from
Im not sure as I bought mine online a while back. But Im pretty sure the kits will be on the major online retailers/tool stores etc. Failing that, Trend Tools will be able to confirm what stores should stock them.
Really helpful video cheers
Youre very welcome.
is these bits are enough durable.
I’ve been using them daily for a while now and had no issues 👍
@@Smugwood thanks for your reply.
Do it is worth buying.
It’s personal preference I guess but for me they are well worth the money because it works out very little cost per router bit and I use nearly all of them in my work. 👍
@@Smugwood thanks for your suggestion.
I will try soon.
thank you for the video. If i want to get, how can i order it and in which app its available
I got mine online...think it was DM tools. But amazon etc I think also sell sets.
Eu gostaria de saber como eu faco pra adquerir essas tres pecas pra fazer almofadas em e essas portinhas
Bom dia amigo!
Sou do Brasil, em que site eu poço comprar esse kit?
I’m not sure but places like Amazon usually sell them.
São umas excelentes o vídeo ficou excelente 👍
Thanks for the video dude! It's a helpful buying guide! ;)
It’s a good little set. I’ve got a couple of different Trend sets and the cutters do a good job. I think for the price of the sets you can’t go far wrong.
Smugwood you're absolutely right, I have looking different bits but ended up ordering this one!
I'm curious what kind of router table you're using. That black router plate is gorgeous.
It’s a Trend Wrt router table. 😊
How will I get this set in India ?
Im not sure on logistics etc...I just ordered the set online :-)
How about slappin' a piece of oak or maple on that table and drive it about four feet to see how long it takes these bits to start showing some burning! Maybe go through a knot or two while you're at it!
I use the cutters daily on oak...it’s the wood I use the most and they work fine. If you’ve seen my latest guitar build, they’re also used on that project which is Hard Ash and Maple...and no issues. 👍

Good to hear! I'm looking for some long lasting bits. Thanks
Just a precisation, mate : it isn't 'caveto' as you put it, it is rather CAVETTO with TWO Ts.
Really really helpful. Thanks!
No problem 😊.

Nice thanks 👍👍
You’re welcome 👍
Are these bits enough durable.
They aren't the top of the range cutters that Trend do, but im using these on a day to day basis and ive found no issues with them what so ever. Certainly for what im doing they are more than adequate :)
@@Smugwood thanks for replying soon.
I will try these bits.
great vid and music
Thanks that means a lot...I make the music myself and sometimes it’s harder to make the music than it is to make the video 😂
Excelente
Thanks 😊
Заказ сделать можно ? Откуда это видео где это продают
Sir Ye Bitts Hamko Chahiye Kise Mang Baye
Wasn’t sure if you mean the router bits or music. The router bits are from many stores online like Amazon for instance. The music I make myself.
Nice video, very helpful
Thanks...I often use it myself for reference. :)
Sort of an insult that they want $240 here in the US for this set. About 10 years ago, I got a similarly finished chinese bit set for about a dollar a bit, with 70 bits in it. 1/2 inch shank, and surprisingly, all of them have been fine. I'm sure if I busted out the micrometer, I could find that they're not as accurately made as freud, but a lot of them are perfectly fine for a one-off cut that you might never make again.
Trend seems to specialize in overcharging for relabeled generic chinese stuff these days. That's my opinion from what I've seen, of course (like $150 import "diamond plate kits", etc).
And then diversify into other nonsense like tiny bottles of cutting fluid.
To be honest, I don't have much use experience of other cutters...There is another company I use for some of the cutters Trend dont produce, but generally Im a fan of Trend cutters and Trend products. Ive seen quite a lot cheaper alternative cutters fail within minutes and some bent on first use...so I tend to stick with Trend for that reason. There definitely are cheaper cutters out there and some will no doubt be ok...but I feel spending a little on quality tends to give you piece of mind.
One big decider for me though was I did have an issue with one of the Trend cutters I purchased and called them up with a concern. They had me return the cutter so they could check it out and kindly sent me 3 in its place which all seem to be spot on...
I guess the bottom line is...everyone has their favourites and for a variety of reasons. :-)
