If I'm breaking up a big chunk of ice for the beer cooler, the chisel works better. The router is better for shaved ice for frozen margaritas though. Ed

I like to use an ogee bit in the 3-HP Router to open old sealed-up paint cans.

I usually trip the breakers in my shop when I plug the chisels in.
Vodka with milk of magnesia... (scroll down)
