Will this Router Bit work?

I used 1/16th bit and have removed the T-Molding twice. Did not have any problems.. I was very careful... and after the third application the T molding still holds in firmly. It might be a matter of luck.

I'm doing the 1/16" right now.  It does require a mallot and the corners are difficult because the tip of the molding starts to flex and doesn't want to go in.  However, once seated it does look very good.

I removed a small piece and it did have a tiny sliver of MDF stuck to it.  Maybe 1/64" -- not enough to make the replacement piece loose or even easier to install.

There is a trick to notching the inside for corners.  Professionals have a notching tool, which is sold on some arcade websites for over $100.  I used my wifes good scissors while she wasn't looking, and they worked fine.

I used a good utility knife and notched the inside and outside corners.  Worked flawlessly.

I bought a 3/32 inch slot cutter from mlcswoodworking.com and it was too big.  I'll need to use glue to finish my project.

Go with 1/16.  I will on my next cab.

I did get good service from mlcswoodworking, though.
