Don’t listen to the bad reviews from people who obviously don’t use a router often. These size bits naturally require a larger collet diameter for the amount of material you are shaping. The floating panel bit is very large and a little scary to use but that was to be expected. Worked perfect for the two doors I needed for the kitchen island I was building. Don’t listen to the noobs and save yourself some money on your project. Expect to do two passes to avoid trying to take too much material off at once. 1/2 collet is obviously a better bet.

Was curious in trying these bits for some cabinets I was building. They came with some micro burrs on them but after cleaning them up they did cut well, but did have some tear out. Fit my skil router just fine. Don't forget to adjust your speed accordingly!

I rarely write reviews but I feel this needs to be said. I almost didn't buy these because of some of the reviews. I finally took a chance on them as I didn't want to spend $$$$ on Freud bits that I'll only use 1 or 2 times. I'm glad I did as the bits worked as well as I could have even hoped for.Buy these bits if you have the following four things:1. A router with 1/2" collet. These are big bits and you need the stability of 1/2" shanks. Yonico could avoid many bad reviews by not offering such large bits with 1/4" shanks, it's a recipe for failure. Even with a 1/2" collet, make sure that the shank is inserted deep....it's important!2. Router table. You cannot cut rails and stiles accurately with a hand held router....no how no way (and it's dangerous too).3. Router speed control. Slow the bit down and practice a few cuts to get your feed rate and speed right before making your panels.4. Basic woodworking abilities. If you haven't done any woodworking, starting off with raised panels is a rough way to go. It can be done but probably won't yield primo results. If you chose to do them with no experience and it goes bad, don't leave a poor review. It's your fault!I hope this helps some people decide. They are a great bit for the occasional user if you use them properly.Check out the photos. Those are the actual cuts with no filler.Paul

I have owned different brands of these in the past and they were great to work with. I decided to save about $30 for the set and try these. I bought two sets with different profiles and they absolutely SUCK. The rail and stile set are the real problem. The joints are so tight they have to be hammered together, so I'm using a sanding block to fit them together. Tear-out is also an issue: the bits don't cut cleanly and leave a ton of tear out and little tabs on the edges that I have to cut away with a knife.With respect to those who offer up good reviews, I wonder if they've ever used a really good bit set. These are not and I'm going back to Woodline USA. Their bits are fantastic and affordable. Save yourself the grief and buy up a bit.These are not just a bargain. They're cheap and crappy.

Looking for router bits that won’t break the bank? These are sharp and sturdy. They worked fantastic, I have nothing bad to say about them at all, my cabinet doors turned out awesome. Just make sure to have a big enough router or they may not work like you want.

As other reviews have said, you will need to tune these bits by removing or adding shims. There are instructions on the precisionbits.com site that make it super simple! For whatever reason my first set I ended up with a machining error and the bits weren’t matching up even with all shims removed; I reached out and the rep at precision parts took awesome care of the situation. Sent out a replacement bit and walked me through, and now they are working really perfectly. Super impressed for the reasonable price. I milled up 4 walnut doors so far.

Quality bits - but take the time to adjust them first. The attached photo shows a closeup of my first door. My later ones were better; in particular I got better at avoiding chipping along the panel slot, and doing a better job of sanding before assembling the door. I really like the profile, although I think I would like a smooth curve up to the panel surface.Adjust adjust adjust!Don't assume that the matching smaller bits (for stiles and rails) are properly adjusted when they arrive. I made this mistake and as a result my first few attempts wouldn't fit together properly - the notch was smaller than the tongue going into it, so I couldn't get the stile to fit fully into the rail, and I had to toss my first batch of door parts.However, a simple bit of work with rearranging a few shim washers (installed between the bit parts) fixed the problem neatly, and the rest of the project went great.The panel bit is scary huge, and howls when spinning at full speed. I had to add a 1/4" plywood surface to my small router table, because the bit had to sit slightly below the main surface, to get the proper depth. I set things up for multiple increasing depth passes to limit how far I was cutting on each pass; this was necessary to work with the power limits of my router.I think the largest bit was slightly, slightly off-balance, but that's not surprising with something this large. Working with a small router table means that any slight imbalance results in a lot of poorly-damped vibration when at full speed - I assume a professional router table wouldn't have this problem, so I don't consider it worthy of dropping a star rating.I had not built cabinet doors for about 30 years - since working in a cabinet shop as a teenager. So this door-building project was really intimidating, and I was very worried about my ability to pull it off. But these bits, coupled with an appropriately powerful router, did the trick neatly. And after a few doors, I was back in the groove, remembering some of those tricks I used to use.I would definitely buy this again - in fact, I liked it enough that when I needed to buy another bit for the door edge profile, I really wanted to find another Yonico.
