Wonder if anyone can help I am looking for a router cutter to cut a
rebate of 18mm wide by 18mm deep but cant seem to find when anywhere
most grovers or biscuit cutter bits seems limited to 12.5mm depths max
and while I could go narrower and do multiple passes I cant think of a
way to get the depth.
For information the grove is to be cut in an enclosed cut-out so use of
a normal router with the work piece on edge wont go. Neither will a
spindle moulder with a wobble saw.
I take it you want an actual groove in the internal edge, and not just a
rebate then? The latter could be achieved with a non bearing guided
rebate cutter and a straight edge to guide the router.
If you need an actual groove, then you need a cutter with a big diameter
to give you the rebate depth. They are available, but you may not like
the price!

(you would need a slightly larger bearing on it to get exactly 18mm depth)
Oh, slightly cheaper he
