24 piece ROUTER BIT SET - 1/4" shank NEW CARBIDE BITS Aluminum Carry Case

As witnessed by another reviewer, after brief usage, these router bits tend to get stuck in the router and need to be pried and finagled out. True, I have and old Black and Decker router, but my old rusty bits never get stuck. It happened with the first two bits I tried, so I took a few minutes and used some 400 grit sandpaper to burnish the steel shaft of all the bits. The third bit I tried did not get stuck after it was burnished. The bits seem to perform well, but don't do the best cutting on knots in soft pine. Two or three passes are sometimes required to get a smooth, uniform cut. They seem good for the price though.

I bought this to just get into woodworking and routing, but only a few weeks into it, I regret not buying a better set. The 1/4 round bit was getting slightly dull, and I bought a single craftsman brand one to have handy....and I realized the craftsman had a lot more metal/weight to it, and even the knife edge was thicker and heavier duty. If I could do it over again? I would buy a craftsman 30 piece set for double the price of what I paid for this. At this time, this was $36.99 shipped to my door with prime shipping.

They're a nice collection of 1/4" bits for an extremely reasonable price. Certainly not industrial quality but great to have around if just for the variety. If you buy router bits you know that some bits are $35 a piece, these were $35 a set. As far as the case, I see no problem with it as you're basically getting a free case with a set of bits. You can have the same set of bits in high quality if you want, just be prepared to pay 5 times the price.

I like these quite a bit. I ordered a larger set about six months ago and the bits were scattered all over the case; it took me over an hour to figure out where they went and I'm still not sure I've got them right until I use them for the first time.These came nicely nestled in their little bit houses and I've only used a couple of the bits so far, but they seem to be good.I'm pleased.

All of f the bearings evaporate after 20 or so minutes of constant routing. Would not recommend

These bits are a nice set for a beginner. It's good to have a decent selection, but I don't find myself using too many of them.From the ones I have used more often I am noticing the coating doesn't last too long. The carbide edges seem fine though which is really what matters

The case is good looking and protects the bits well. I like the many sizes, though I have not tried all of them. The bits work well and are efficient at cutting. I would have liked some bigger bits as these are limited to thinner wood of less than 1".

These bits are handy to keep in the truck for quick projects out and about. May not be good for high output shop production, but are working great in the field.
