3/4" radius cove shaper cutter

[Dana Vogel]

Anyone know where I may find one of these elusive 3/4" radius cove economy shaper cutters? I have looked exhaustively on the internet with no luck, I have found combination cove/bead or cove/ogee but no straight up cove cutters.

CMT makes one, available at Woodcraft.

Oops. I just saw that you were looking for shaper cutters, not router bits. Perhaps a portion of a coved panel raising cutter?

The link above shows a cutter for the 40mm cutterheads in HSS.

Were you looking for carbide?

Amana makes a family of cutters which is a combo cove and quarter-round. One of them has a 3/4 radius cove: P/N SC 414. Adjust the cutter height in the table so that you're just using the cove, and you're set.

Would a fluting cutter work for you? Radius is radius so wouldn't think it would matter much.

Try routerbitworld.com. Freud makes a combination cove/corner round bit in 3/4" radius size, but they appear to be for 1-1/4" shafts.

Here is a cove cutter in 3/4" radius cove cutter (http://routerbitworld.com/Freud-EC-101-1-8-RADIUS-CONVEX-Carbide-Tipped-Sha-p/freud%20ec-101.htm)

Thanks for all the input, although the suggested shaper cutters were out of my price range I was hoping for something along the line of Grizzly, MLSC or the such but I guess the big stuff is left to the Pro brands. I will probably have to settle for a 1/2" shank router bit for $26.00 delivered.
