Title: high speed steel
Product review: I wanted to get a bit that was solid carbide, but then I saw this one for $5. High speed steel is plenty for limited use, especially for $5, but I wish it were at least carbide tipped. I didn't need many veins, just a dozen or so to fancy up a few oak table tops. I like this rounded one because the beading is easier to clean out than a straight one, which makes a right angle in your groove (which is hard to wipe debris out of, which is important for tables). Move the bit nice and slow so it doesn't gouge your work, and make sure you have a router fence to butt up against.. if you want a straight line anyway.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
