Whiteside Router Bits 1550 V-Groove 60-Degree 1/2-Inch Cutting Diameter and 7/16-Inch Point Length

While this bit may work for you if you’re working with HDPE, for soft and hard wood, it just doesn’t fit the bill. Right from the start, I’ve suffered from tear out with this bit, no matter the spindle or traverse speeds or variety of wood. Apparently, if you want a dependable bit that works as it should, stick with amana.

Would be OK if they would have packaged all of the nuts having 5/16 threads like the bolts. However the T-handle nuts are 1/4- 20 on the set I received.

So far i have used this bit to make a multitude of signs, i run a small shop and have found that using strong sharp bits just makes life that much easier. This bit has been used on my CNC for at least 50 medium signs and shows no sign of wear. I mostly cut through white oak and maple, and this little guy keeps on cutting smooth lines.

I ordered the WhiteSide V Groove Bit because I Have been using WhiteSide bits for years and never have had a problem with any of them.The 1/4 Shank, 1/2 Diameter x 7/16 Point Length x 2 OL - V Groove Bit, 60 degree bit works great I have been carving some Red Oak and it cuts it with ease. I am using it on my CNC mill with no problem I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great V groove bit.

I have used a variety of router bits. When I first started woodworking, I bought the cheap ones. I gradually learned that cheap means more in the long run because they dont last and the cut quality is not very good. I then tried Whiteside based on a review from Guys Workshop on YouTube and since purchasing them, I wont go with any other router bit with the exception of Sommerfeld Tools router bits. I used this bit to make some awards boards for my prior military unit (Picture Included) and you can get an idea of how well the router bit held up. That is just one board, there were two in total. I used the one bit, cleaned it between boards and had no sanding or clean up to do on the letters I routed out. My test piece I used a router bit from a good named company I purchased from one of the big box stores and in a much softer easier wood to route, did not have near as good quality. You wont be disappointed with these router bits.

This has been great so far for my CNC, over 5 hours of carving using it and it is still sharp.

This is the bit I should have gotten from the beginning. Closest to perfect v tip I’ve been able to find. You have to be careful with this style of v bit because it looks to be a perfect “V” from one angle of the picture but it you twist the bit 90 degrees the carbide thickness will sometimes cause a flat bottom.

A good tool thats come in handy on multiple projects. When putting in the tool dimentions into fusion 360 be sure to list the angle as 30 degrees because fusion measures it differently than the manufacturer.

Ezyrollers are so much fun for our grandkids. We had to buy more...Love them

Works great, use this with my shapeoko xxl. Hasnt let me down. Many unions have been carved with this bad boy.
