Where can I buy a canoe bit for a tabletop router? Also known as"ball and socket"....
I'm looking to build an outdoor cedar barrel sauna and was thinking
tongue and grove. I looked on manufacturers website and it seems that they use a "ball and socket" type joint to join the staves together. Anyone know where to purchase a set for grooving 1" or 1-1/2" lumber? I've seen plenty small bits on Ebay and the like but haven't found anything for 1-1/2" height? |

This is really a job for a shaper, not a router, and a healthy one
at that. You can look at car siding, a standard mill shape, that may accomplish what you are after. I don't know about availability in cedar. A local mill shop may run the material for you. -- ______________________________ Keep the whole world singing . . . . DanG (remove the sevens) "hdivr" wrote in message ...

Look here
http://www.mlcswoodworking.com/shops.../bt_flute.html This is what I used for my canoe ( the 5/16" version). These do not work well with a cheap router. The bead bit wobbled like crazy in my old crafstman. Worked fine with the dewault. Rich |

The OP was looking for 1" or 1.5". Chris |

You might want to look at the Lee Valley internal and external half-radius bullnose bits http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.a...56&cat=1,46168 and http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.a...57&cat=1,46168. They can go up to 1-1/4 inch and the radii are matched for each size. -- -- --John to email, dial "usenet" and validate (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net) |
