Had to replace a piece of a door jam that was rotted out, now I need
to cut out a hinge recess with rounded corners and I don't have a
router.

I have a Dremel, does Home Depot sell any kind of bit for this
purpose?

Any suggestions?


I've used wood chisels for that, but never for rounded corners.
A quick google found this. Might do for your Dremel.
Wish I had to do that. Good excuse for more Dremel stuff.
