Groove cutting
beading is commonly defined as cutting a groove
or bead in the face of a board.
To cut a groove in a workpiece:
1. mount a router bit into your router according
to the router manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Snap the smallest table insert into the
recessed hole that still allows the router bit to
freely rotate.
3. raise the router bit to the desired height.
4. adjust the main fence until the center of the
v-groove bit is the desired distance away, as
shown in
figures 22 & 23.

profile cutting
profile cutting is usually performed using a bit with
a ball bearing. the ball bearing is used to control
the depth of cut into the edge face of a board. a
good example would be a chamfer cut. the bear-
ing rides along the uncut edge of the board while
the cutter removes the wood.
