Great vid. Thanks. EXACTLY what I needed. Bought it on Amazon (Model MD504) for $100. Only a DIY guy so didn't want to spent $220 + but the cheaper ones were junk. FYI the ogee set in the video is MD502 (not 500 as stated in the video).
Ramaroodle, thank you for your kind words about the video, yes you are correct, the set used in the video is indeed MD502 which includes the back cutter.
What router lift are you using. I bought these bits recently and I’m currently looking to buy a lift. Not sure which lifts can accommodate that panel bit. Thanks in advance
Nice job. Hi my name is Apolinar I just got the set of knives from tools today and I'm working on my router table now. The question I have is about the router rpm. What's the best rpm to run the styles and rails, and the raised panel cutter, I'm running soft pine wood. Thank you. ...
Awesome router bits, nice colour! I noticed they're put together with a nut on top? What if that comes loose while cutting with all the vibration? Looks sketchy!!
Hi Ian, thanks for your comment - these router bits spin in the opposite direction of the nut, therefore if anything, the nut will only become tighter - never loosen!
Nice setup. The Incra fence (not the Wonder Fence add on) looks longer than the the standard Incra positioner router fence, which I have. Is that an illusion or are you using TS parts there? Also, it looks like the entire router table is cast iron. I'm not aware of a commercially available cast-iron router table that is as large as that one, which must extend back quite a way to accommodate the Incra positioner. Where did you get it?
Thanks for the question. The setup, like pretty much every router table out there, is a combination of available items bought together to create a functional setup. The Incra system is a stock standard LS17" positioner, with the standard fence (plus the Wonder Fence). It has been changed over to metric, but otherwise is unmodified. You are correct in that the entire top is cast iron. Pretty much every other serious machine in the workshop is commercially available with a full cast iron top, yet the router table tends to be ignored, leaving us to make our own, or purchase one made from manufactured board. I decided to remedy the situation, so this top is made from five tablesaw cast iron wings bolted together. The last wing was taken to a machining shop, and the opening for the router lift was cut out. It is rather heavy (obviously), and it is much longer than a typical router table top as you observed, so it could accommodate the LS17" positioner. There are a number of advantages to this top. Self lubricating, and an excellent vibration absorbing material. It is dimensionally stable and flat, and my personal motivator- ferrous, so I can use MagSwitch featherboards quickly and
+Toolstoday Thank you. I work with wood. I make cabinets all day long and I always learn something new. Your demmostration was great! Keep up shearing.
I really enjoyed the flow of your video. Very informative and engaging. Felt like I could almost do most of this! Lol...thanks for posting. Subscribed.
Ok, I'm done with the table router, the 2.25 Horse power router is mounted in on the table and run my rails and styles but when I ran the big cutter for the center piece (panel) the amount of material that goes in the grooves of the rails and styles is very little. I'm I doing some wrong? Can any body help me out please. Thank you.
Hi Stefan, thank you to invite me to email you to discus about the tool I got from Tools Today. I'm ok now. After a little while I ended figuring it out. The comment I made about the tool was not to put you guys down, at that moment I needed help, and it was on a weekend when you guys are closed. I''m happy with the AGE set of cutters for raised panels doors. Thank you again.
the most important information on this video was skipped over. You need to show how to align the bits (both of them) in greater detail. How to set the height of the rail bit to match the correct height of the style.

At 11:17 minutes...he looked at the finish product like WTF did I do wrong? The panel didn't look right when he laid the router bits next to it at the end lol.
This idea is simply great, thanks! Bt the way, head over to Woody Hyezmars site, you can google his name, he’s giving away his woodworking book, I think still…
+Martin Godinez, if you have questions on the instructions, please contact our technical department by either chatting with us online by clicking the 'chat' icon on our homepage or by calling (888) 699-3939.
Thank you for your comment however we disagree, the bits cut clean and sharp, and the fitment was not glued / finalized and was loose fitting for the video.
+Trevor Deeks, Thank you for your feedback. We have been working to improve our close-ups of the tools and if you watch some of our recent videos you will see some awesome close-ups!
