After selling my house, I've been using a public workshop here in Philadelphia. Most of my tools (including bits) are in storage at the moment, so I've tried to use some of the orphan bits left at the shop instead of buying them again if possible.
I am trying to take a template from 3/4" BB ply and glue/brad up to about 7 layers of 3/4" to make a form for some bent laminations. When I added the layer and tried to trim it flush, the bit left it a few thou proud. I tried several bits in the box and got the same result over and over again.
So my question is...are these just all worn, cheap bits where the carbide has worn away ever so slightly leaving the cut slightly proud? I cannot imagine a scenario where a flush trim bit was intended to leave the cut just slightly proud intentionally. Just thought I'd get ya'lls feedback before I head to the local Woodcraft for a shiny new, $100 Whiteside bit.
