Infinity Mega Flush Trim Router Bit Demo with Useful Tips for large diameter flush trimming bits 

Hi Tom, that's great to hear. Glad you had success with the bit too. Best

I would still rout in the preferred direction, and take only light passes. Furthermore, I never rout end grain (I sand it later for safety). But with those safety points in mind, yes it seems to reduce catching and chatter immensely. Good luck with your decision!

Hey Brent, I started with the RPM very low on my router table (13 amp Freud router with built-in lift) and it sounded a little strange. The numbers on a variable speed router dial are sometimes hard to translate to actual RPM, but basically I increased the speed slightly. Then it sounds normal and cuts well. I usually remove 1/16" to 1/8" of material when trimming to a pattern. For me, it cuts best in the standard direction on the router table, and gives a nice edge top and bottom. Without breaking the rules from the manufacturer, can you dial up the speed slightly? The two larger bits have a lot of mass, so make sure the collet is clean, and the router lock is snug enough. Good luck with it!

Performance is surprisingly similar with both brands. Both offer excellent cut quality. Infinity has large diameter options, and in some instances is about half the cost. Whiteside handles climb routing a little better, but if you go in the correct direction the Infinity cut is flawless. I bet you'd be happy with either. Best

Yes, I would make a first pass to flush trim partial width of your thick board using a template. Then remove the template and have the bearing follow the fresh edge you just cut. You may need two different bits, but they don't both have to be Mega bits. Best of luck with it.

The large diameter Mega Flush Trim bits have a max speed rating of 16,000 rpm. However, they have a sweet spot for the smoothest cuts, and I feel like that's pretty close to 16k. You must be rocking an older router huh?

I'm not sure on international pricing. Sorry about that.
