- Best panel door bit set
- To use this bit set properly, you need at least 2 1/2 HP router with variable speed. 3 or more HP is recommended but variable speed control is a must have.
For best result you have to adjust rpm: 17500rpm for rail and stile bits, 12000rpm for panel bit. Variable speed is much more important that HP.

- Couldn't be happier
- Freud really hit a home run with this set! The instructions are straight-forward and easy to follow. Fantastic results on the very first try. Now I want to replace all the flat-panel doors I've made over the years with great looking raised panel doors. I was actually disappointed to finish my first panels because it was so much fun building More reviews
- Freud 97-210 3-Piece Door Bit Set
- This cutter set, like all of the Freud bits I have used are really great. They hold their edge much better than most of the others. If you want a nice set for cabinet doors or just for making small panels this fits the bill nicely. More reviews
- Exceeded Expectations
- This was my first attempt at raised panel doors. Freud is certainly the best. I had to modify my cheap router table to fit my router. I can certainly say if you dont have a 3.25 or 3.5 HP router, you will need to make multiple passes, otherwise you will do what I did with my Hitachi 12VC....burn it up.
Overall, this is an excellent product and I highly recommend More reviews
- Best I've ever used.
