Wow. Awesome graphics! Alot of time on your hands? Were you pushing the router through the MDF in the wrong direction? |

Blade, bearing and arbour are all seperate. Its very easy to put the blade on backwards ( I know from experience ). --- End quote --- eg:-) --- End quote --- Okay, okay, I got it! ;D |

You know what? I have mine on in the opposite direction! :o Maybe my router turns in the opposite direction, but it runs clockwise so I have my cutter mounted clockwise too. (image from MLCS without permission) :edit: ok I guess the "eg:-)" meant you were probably displaying the improper way to mount the cutter. That's really confusing then! >:( People might misunderstand that image and think that's the way to put it together. |

No, I had the bit on correctly, I've owned several bits that required assembly, and I always check the spin of the bit and the direction I need to route before starting. There was no "burning" or struggeling with the router, the carbites simply fell away from the bit. I going to request another 3 wing cutter and see what happens. |
