Router Bits Guide - Flipbook - Page 27
MDF DOORS
The Tooling on this page is designed to give the illusion of raised panel door construction in MDF and solid panel doors. These bits, when used individually,
produce a nice simple raised panel effect in one pass. Or use one of the "Panel" bits in conjunction with one of the "Stile" bits to create a more authentic raised panel
reveal. Many different combinations are possible. See Bottom of Page. Although designed for production routing on solid door machines and CNC routers, the
addition of a bearing to the shank will allow the hobbyist to cut his pattern by following an edge guide. The guide can be four strips clamped around the
perimeter of the door. The top strip may be curved for an arched pattern. Follow the guide and rout both profiles. There’s no need to move the guide for
the second cut. A larger bearing on the panel bit takes care of the offset. Use Bearing #B16 for the Stile bits and Bearing #B24 for the Panel bits. Secure
the bearings to the shank with a #LC-1/2 Lock Collar (see pg. 36). When making the second cut, match the depth setting of the first cut to obtain
a pattern with a flat bottom - Or vary the depth to add an extra distinctive "step" in the bottom of your reveal. Complete the door by adding a
door edge pattern (see Pg. 29) around the outside edge.
