I have a door making set for the shaper that cuts a 7/16" deep by 1/4"

wide
groove (with no profile just as you specify).


Mike

Can you post a link to this router bit set -- I make a few of these doors
from time to time and having a router bit set might speed things up bit




Sam,

Here's a link to the set I have, but it's a door making set designed for a
SHAPER, not a router.

I did a quick check on Amana's site and found a similar router bit set. I
don't know the price.

My 2003 Freud catalog shows an adjustable tongue and groove set which will
cut grooves (and corresponding tongues) from 7/32" to 3/8". Here's a link
to that bit set on Amazon:

If you don't want to buy a router bit or shaper cutter set, have you
considered forming the tongue and groove using your table saw? It might not
produce as clean a cut, but the results may be acceptable for your
application. Just a thought...
