I'm making a dining room table out of five different types of wood in a quilted hodgepodge pattern. Maple, poplar, oak, pine, and cedar came in a variety of thicknesses. I had the bit set to a little more than 1/16 cut, but some of the pieces were a little higher than that, and it easily took them down.

Did a great job leveling my 24" X 49" particle board vacuum chuck spoil board using a 12,000 RPM spindle, an 80 inch per minute feed rate, and a. a cut depth of 010" and a. This 1" router bit has a 4" step over to create a smooth, ripple-free surface. Spindle for the tram. It took a little over 30 minutes to level the spoil board, and it produced a lot of very fine dust. This wasn't a problem because the CNC router is completely enclosed, but if you use it without one, fine dust will fly all over your shop, and you don't want to breathe that fine dust.
I've used it to surface a dozen cutting boards (maple, purpleheart, and bubinga) and flatten the wasteboard on my Shapeoko 3. Make sure you have a dust collection system in place because this bit will certainly produce a lot of dust!.
On my CNC router, I bought this to surface stock and spoil boards. br>br>This is a very well-written piece. This is a well-made product that is well worth the money. br>br>My only caution is that if you plan to use this on a large piece (my spoil board is 3' x 4'), a larger bit may be necessary. A 1" surfacing bit will complete the task much more quickly. When using this bit, keep an eye out for Big Box MDF. I've found staples in the middle of MDF on two separate occasions. This bit has been damaged by the most recent encounter.
A round tree slab was leveled with this. It seemed to cut almost effortlessly, and it worked perfectly. The finish is silky smooth. I would buy it again and recommend it to friends at this price.
I recently bought a CNC router and needed a surfacing bit for my wasteboard; after doing some research and asking around, I was recommended this Whiteside bit. There are more expensive options available, but since I'm just getting started, I figured I'd give this one a shot. br>br>It did a great job for me and left a very smooth and level surface. When surfacing MDF, a lot of dust is produced, so make sure you have a good dust collection system or enclosure in place and, of course, wear a mask. br>br>I thought it was a good buy for the price and quality.
This was used to plane some 2x6s that had been glued together and were uneven. I'll be ordering this again because the bit made clean cuts.
This bit was purchased in order to level and flatten some live edge rounds. I built a special table with adjustable rails and a trough for routing the rounds back and forth. In my setup, the bit worked perfectly. My only regret is that I should have purchased a wider bit to reduce the number of passes I had to make.
I used it to finish a CNC router spoil board, and the cutting edges were razor sharp. I was surprised to find that all of the cutting edges were perpendicular to the vertical axis and in the same plane by 0. 0005"! It gave a surface that was comparable to much more expensive bits. I couldn't find any tool marks in the surface of very fine grain MDF after using 40% overlap passes.
