Hey makers and woodworkers! This Maker Made upcut spiral router bit is a workhorse for your shop. It's a 1/4 inch shank bit made from solid carbide, which means it stays sharp longer and handles tough materials like hardwoods, plywood, MDF, and more. The upcut design is key - as it spins, it pulls chips UP and out of your cut. This helps prevent overheating and allows you to make deeper, cleaner cuts. The trade-off? It might leave the top surface of materials like plywood a bit rougher (that's what downcut bits are for!). Perfect for CNC routers (like Maslow CNC) or hand-held routers. Just make sure your material is clamped down really well, because the upcut action can try to lift it. Precision sharpened for smooth running and clean results. Made by makers, for makers. If you're doing dados, pockets, or through cuts where chip clearance is important, this bit is a fantastic choice.
