Carbide Router Bits

Just take a look around your house at all the products that are made of wood. The coffee table, the end tables, the dining room table, the chairs, stools, butcher block, hand rail, window trim, base board, and on and on.
Nearly all of these were made using a carbide router bit, most likely on a CNC wood machine. These lowly tools are really workhorses, but get so little credit and attention!
This is understandable, because we live in a service economy and manufacturing is more or less looked down upon by the so-called educated. That is one of the reasons so many things are made in low-cost countries, such as China. In the end this will be one of our downfalls, and we will lose our dominance as a manufacturing powerhouse.
