I need to modify a 1/2" router bit. The profile doesn't have to be altered. I simply want to take a standard ogee bit and turn it upside-down to make a cope cut under a tenon (i.e., mated right up to the tenon), which requires removing the nut and washers, and cutting down the threaded post until it's under the carbide cutter height, then welding the bit to the post.
I think brazing it on should work OK, but I'm curious if anyone out there has had experience with this sort of bit modification.
Thanks, H
...and I *do* appreciate warnings about high speed bits whirring around at ungodly speeds, but only from those who are experienced making and modifying them.
