Whiteside Biscuit Joining Router Bits
A biscuit jointing router bit, also known as a biscuit cutter or slot cutter, is a specialized router bit used for creating biscuit joints in woodworking. Biscuit joints are a popular method for joining two pieces of wood together edge-to-edge.
The biscuit jointing router bit is designed to cut a shallow, crescent-shaped slot or groove in the edges of the wood pieces that are being joined.
The biscuit jointing router bit typically has a cylindrical body with a cutting edge on its periphery. The cutting edge is usually carbide-tipped for durability and sharpness. The size of the biscuit jointing bit and the corresponding biscuit used will determine the strength and size of the joint.
