Why Sommerfeld’s Router Bit Sets are your best choice Height-Matching saves your set-up and machining time and helps you achieve top-notch accuracy - every time

Here’s why you’ll want our Height-Matched Bit Sets Every routing expert and book offers the same law of router bit insertion: Insert the bit until it bottoms-out in the collet seat – then retract it 1/16” to 1/8” before tightening. Here’s why. Although the insides of collets are straight to accept the shanks of your bits, when collet nuts are tightened, it’s the tapered outside surface that causes the collet opening to close tightly around the bit as it’s drawn down into the seat.

Notice how the cutters on our equal shaft length bits (i.e.: this 3-Pc Raised Panel Set) If the bit is already in contact with the collet match-up perfectly with all shank ends resting on the bench surface seat when you tighten the nut, its shank won’t allow the collet to be pulled fully into the seat.

For Wood TM Order Line: 1-888-228-9268 Triton - The BEST Router Table Routers – PERIOD ! For convenience…muscle…and value…you can’t beat these two Down-Under-Designed Triton Routers. In fact, Marc liked them so much, the mounting holes* for them are already pre-drilled in the surface of every Sommerfeld’s Routing System Table. The built-in shaft lock and single wrench system make bit changes quick and easy. Turn on the switch, rotate the speed dial to match your speed to the material and bit you’re using and say goodbye to burning. Use the button on the winder knob to select rack-and-pinion or free plunge mode. Left undepressed, cut depth is controlled by pulling the clutch ring on the back of the winder knob and rotating the knob in either direction…moving the router up or down. The 2 ¼ hp Triton is designed to accommodate an accessory winder handle that’s inserted through a hole in your router table’s surface.* 2-1/4HP models are shipped with one of these handles. These are both top-quality routers and the perfect complement to Marc’s Routing System Table shown on page 6-7.* You will not be disappointed. 2-1/4 HP KEY COMMON FEATURES: 3-1/4 HP • Push-button plunge control lets you switch between winder knob activated rack-&-pinion AND free plunge routing modes • 3-step turret lets you pre-set for multiple depths-of-cut with ensured repeatability • Micro-winder knob allows fine adjustments to depth-of-cut when the router is set for rack-and-pinion plunging • Powerful, high-torque motors with variable electronic speed control (8,000- 21,000rpms) and soft start-up • Built-in 1-1/2” O.D. dust port helps capture debris
