If you're new to CNC routers, then you are probably a little confused when it comes to finding a good starter set of CNC router bits.
Below, you will find exactly the bits you need to start carving almost any project you design.
The workhorse of your entire set!.. And the mainstay of every CNC'er. This puppy is designed to remove material fast while leaving super-clean cut lines. From small to big jobs, you'll use this bit a lot!
The little brother of the 1/4" endmill. It does the same thing, except it gets into those spaces his big brother can't to finish the job.
A sign is just a sign until you add the accented touch to it. This bit creates those accents and soft curves to give your projects the character that makes your project pop!
You know those cool 3D carvings you've seen people make? This is the bit that does it! Watching this bit dance across the contours of a 3D project is like watching a campfire. It's mezmerizing.
Have you seen those very cool inlays people make on their CNC routers? This guy is the one to do it with. It also v-carves those finer designs the 90° can't do. This is the most versatile v-bit in your CNC router bit arsenal!
Then there's your engraving bit. When you want to capture phenomenally fine details, like carving a handwritten letter you have as a keepsake this is the bit you want!
Like the 1/4" endmill, this is the go-to bit to carve words and swirls in your projects. I call this the git-'er-done bit because it carves almost any shape you can come up with. And the blade design leaves your cuts baby-bottom smooth.
This bit is like the refined lady of the down-cut trio. When your projects need that delicate touch, you're reaching for this one. This little bit lets you do the fine work in those super-tight spaces to bring out the true beauty of your projects.
But we're not done yet because there are more things you need.
And they are included in your complete starter set!

Why is the surfacing bit important?
The surface your project is clamped to (the spoilboard) must be level with the motion of your router. If not, your carve WILL be uneven. And an uneven carve, even the in slightest, shows up dramatically!
The surfacing bit levels the spoilboard so this doesn't happen. No spoilboard is perfectly flat until we surface it.
The good thing is, now you know, and you'll have your surfacing bit on hand.
You get 2 collet adaptors for your smaller bits to speed up your bit change.
Each precision-ground collet adaptor is made of case-hardened 4140 carbon steel and fits every 1/4" router, so you can use 1/8" diameter router bits
This carbide endmill isn't so standard.
With the double bevel at the tip, this endmill can drill holes!
Aside from the side-cutting, knife-edge flutes, the fast spiral is designed to eject the wood chips at lightning speed while plunging, making it optimal for drilling.
And, of course, it is a fast side-cutter too.
This is where almost all CNC router bit suppliers miss the mark. They don't give you the feeds & speeds with the bits. You have to go searching for them.
Not here. You get your feeds & speeds table the second you order your set!
This feeds & speeds PDF gives you all the data needed to make sure your new CNC router bits are set up exactly as they need to be.
But that's just the start. This 30-page PDF book covers feeds & speeds for ALL the bits you can possibly get for your CNC router.
Perk Alert → It has links listed right next to every bit so you never have to search for a bit you want. Just click the link and you'll go right to the source. Now that makes it easy!
Setting up your bits in your design software is time-consuming. It's also easy to make mistakes this way.
Unfortunately, most design software has only the basic bits set up.
If you have Vectric, this won't be an issue, because you're getting a fully populated router bit database with all the settings pre-installed.
A 15-minute video shows you exactly how to install the database. No manual entry!
Even better... When it's time to replace a bit, or get other styles, the links are listed right in the database. No browsing the web, and faced with a ton of selections. One click and you have your new bit ordered!
These bits are 100% solid Tungsten-Carbide, and made to ISO tool-maker standards. Carbide is the same superior tool steel used by journeyman machinists to do their metalwork.
Your CNC router bits will exceed your performance expectations, for finish and durability, or you will receive a full refund.
