I understand now why it's important for raised panel bit to have bearings, to be able to do the cruves. Plus CMT comes with two size, bigger one for first pass, and a smaller final size.
Since I been into routering lately, I tend to do three passes on straight. My question is I wonder if it would be easier on the carbide if I do a less pass (do two passes instead of three)? So, doing three passes would be easier to work with, but two passes would prolong the life of router bit? This is regarding straight passes (no choice for curves, only two passes).
