Must be getting brain dead in my old age but I can't figure an easy way to do this.
Have a rail & stile bit that I use to make some doors. All is well, slot is cut for panel, etc. Problem is, I want to make glass doors and putting the glass panel in the slot seems like a bad idea. If glass should break, I'd need to disassemble the whole door to replace it.
Solution was to chisel out the slot turning it into a rabbet. Works perfectly BUT there's got to be a way to do it with the bit itself no? I've tried all the alignments I can and if I want a rabbet on the back I also get a large step on the front because of the bit alignment.
Looked for a bit that is designed to make a rabbet with a cope & stick bit but haven't seen any.
Don't know if I've explained the problem well but welcome any suggestions.
Of course, as a last resort I can still chisel out the rabbet.
Thanx,
Vic
