Hi all,
I just joined this group and am sure I will really enjoy it. What I have is a pair of reversible stile and rail router cutters to use for making raised panel doors. I thought that by buying two sets I would be able to leave them set-up and not have to disassemble them to go from cope to pattern. Have any of found any difficulty getting the joints to close on both the face and back of the frame? The cutters I have were obtained locally from Magnate who also sells one piece cutters as well as the line Amana cutters. Since I was sticker-shocked at the price of the Amana buts I opted for the 'house brand' I am feeling now that the 'cheap' way was the wrong way. The pattern I am using is the ogee cut and the two radii on the cutter (s) do not seem to work together to allow a reasonable fit. Have you folks had better luck with a set of solid cutters ? At this juncture, I fell that for my next project of this type, I will bite the bullet and buy the Amana. Sorry for this long post.
