Which router bits do I need?

(1/2) > >>

leapinlew:
Hey guys - I am in need of a couple bits. Could someone confirm if these are the bits I need:

1st bit is intended to be used to trim the plexiglass/lexan.

If yes - does the cutting length matter between a 1" and a bigger size? The Plexi will probably only be 1/8

2nd bit is inteded to cut the 1/16th in slot for the t-molding

My router accepts 1/2" shank.

Thanks, I appreicate the help. I'm very much a rookie with this woodworking.

The first one is fine Lew.....  But I can't see a slot cutter on the second list that has a 1/16 cut height.  The right sort of cutter, just not the right thickness of cut.

Personally I use a 16th" biscuit cutter....  They're used for cutting a slot to take a glue in jointing biscuit in furnature making.

First bit good - thanks.

As for the second bit - I was thinking in the lower table, top right under 1/2" shank is set #7641

?

Fozzy The Bear:
Yup! You're right.... I see it now.... Doh!!!  ::)

Yes, that should do the job.
