Router Bit Types, Profiles, and Uses

Choose a router bit by the shape it must leave in the workpiece, then check how the cut will be guided and whether the cutter fits your router. A straight bit makes a flat-bottomed channel; a roundover softens an outside corner; a flush-trim bit copies a reference edge. The shank, bearing position, cutting reach, and operating limits still have to match the setup.
