    Trying to Find a Router Bit

    I am trying to find a double curve ogee router bit for a cabinet door edge. I have checked on most of the tool sites such as Amana and Freud, but they don't have anything close.

    Any thoughts on where else to check?

    I can't determine what a double curve ogee is. Aren't all ogee's double curve?

    There are numerous ogee bitts. Can you draw what you are looking for?

    I found one on the following link.

    Perhaps "cove and bead" is what you mean?

    Check the MLCS website. While I wouldn't recommend you buy from there if looking for higher quality bits, but perhaps perusing their index of router bits will give you the correct name for the profile.

    Check out the bits at MLSC http://www.mlcswoodworking.com/shops...forming_anchor . I have purchased bits from them and been completely satisfied. I especially like their Katana series.

    That is pretty close Jay, and the closest one I could find. Here is a photo of the edge. What I have seen is that most are a taller vertical bite and what I need is a shorter vertical size and longer horizontal one. I thought about using a raised panel bit, but it just cuts too deep. I believe the total vertical cut is about 3/16".

    I checked the mlcs site a couple of times, again today after Ken suggested them, yet missed that one Victor. The 'B' profile looks to be a close, if not exact match. Thanks for the help. Got it ordered and on its way.
