Keep in mind there are two version of Woodtek bits, and the ones that received the good rating here are the more expensive version. The individually sold bits are higher quality, but the bit sets beginning with #122 are their economy line.

I wonder how many woodworkers who had "router" as a deal alert are excited that they finally got an alert relevant to them.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank _MaLi_

Don't know what's going on, I tried adding them as URLS and plain text and the forum messes with the formatting... and adds the re-direct.

If you go on the main page the info is there and also the links to the three categories.

Nice, only problem is I don't have a router. It's the last tool I need to really complete my workshop and I've been holding out for a good deal. Anyone heard of any decent deals on routers lately? Any recommended brands? Thanks.

Sadly you missed the hitachi/metabo deal, it was as low as $60 and $40 for them. Such a good deal I got 2.

For a newbie... 1/2" vs. 1/4" shank? Or is it a good idea to have a set of both?

Ordered the "Woodtek Carbide 122405 Router Bit Sets 24 Piece" kit for my Ryobi P601 18v router. It uses 1/4" shank bits, so hopefully these will work well.

I actually have one of each, but I understand adapters can be used?

Under $150 is a good deal with evspk package. A decent deal is $170. Smilie

Yes. The rail and style bits for rail and stile panel doors are big and put a lot of stress on the shank.

Yeah, the Bosch 1617 is the lowest tier you will want to go, if you want a router that does everything AND lasts years and years if abuse.

Routers are one of the tools you will greatly regret not getting a good one of.

Also, bits. These Woodtek bits are ok to start with. Once you use them. Few times, buy a higher quality bit, and you will be blown away by how much better the quality bits are. You can stay in that Whiteside/Diablo range bits if you arent going hardcore, and you are just doing it for fun.

I have the DeWalt DCW600B that is 1/4" collet size.

I'm just getting into using a router. Which one of these is a good all around selection of bits and ones I find I use a lot I can get nicer ones.
