The recomended speed for a 3" bit is 12,000 rpms which should be the lowest
speed setting on most 21/4 hp routers.

From what I understand verticle panel raising is easier and safer than
doing
it with a large 3+" horizontal panel raising bit. Other than making a
good
solid tall fence is there any reason to re-consider doing them
horizontally?
I have a 2 1/4" bosch router and a table for it.

If you are spinning 3" bits a larger router is desirable. Actually it is
easier to make curved cuts when using a horizontal bit vs. a vertical
bit.


Also, use a router that can run less than 22,000 rpm.
