T-molding.com is out of stock of their bit, and I looked everywhere around town.  I couldn't even find any slot cutting bits, much less one that cuts a 0.075" slot!  Anyone have a used one they are wanting to sell?

Thanks in advance,
Andy

Thanks for the link!
I assume the 5/64" will be close enough for the tmolding sold by t-molding.com?  I think that comes out to 0.078" where as the bit they are trying to sell on t-molding.com is 0.075".  I just want to make sure the tmolding will be tight enough.

I think 1/16" is the size most people get, makes sure the molding if nice and tight and won't fall out. And if its too tight you can cut the slot *very* slightly off center, and again on the reverse side to create a bigger slot.

Personally I'd rather get the smaller size, and maybe have to do some extra work than going for the larger size and the tmolding falling out.

In case anyone else is looking, I found a few more sites that are really cheap.  I ended up getting the 0.070 bit with shank for only $16 and no shipping or tax:
