Does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Cuts nice and clean without damaging my template

I’ve never used a Flush Trim bit until now. This tool is incredible and covers up my miscalculated errors. The garage cabinet looks much better after the trim than before. I’m sold!

This trim bit performed swimmingly! I needed a longer bit for a deeper trim. It doesn’t say it in the title, but this is a 1″ long bit. (the cut width is 1/2″, but the carbide blade is 1″) This one fit the bill. I love the 3-blade design. It cuts smoothly with no kickback. I had zero problems with this bit.

Decent flush cut but. Not 100% flush (slight overcut) but still works well.

Needed a trim bit to work on real bamboo veneer 1/8″ thick. Found this bit and bought it. It worked great, the extra cutter flute made a big difference.

I built a counter for a convenience store with a “stop red” laminate top from home depot. This flush trim bit was used to do all of the final trimming for the laminate top. It doesn’t eat into the top like a lesser quality one that I had in a kit of 12 pieces that cost the same as this one bit. But not messing up $50 worth of laminate was well worth its price. It cut quickly and easily and left just enough of an edge that with some rough filing down till the glue residue was removed gave a great indicator of when to stop filing to get a perfect routed edge.

I’m a fan of the new three (3) flute design. Cuts through pine with little effort. Gives great control while following the template. I would imagine trimming Formica tops. Packaging says it can be used to work Corian® Counter tops.

I never want to find myself without an extra one of these in my tool kit, it the best way to make a finish job look finished.

It cuts clean and I trust it will do so for many years.

Made plans to do several pices of a paper towel holder in the shape of a Dachshound for family members and a few friends. Made my template and from there it was easy to duplicate the model and get them finished in no time. They all came out perfect due to this bit.
