The BE Sheer Cut Pattern Bit
The Burgess Edge sheer cut Pattern Bit is unique.
1. Capable of handling 5/4” material.
2. The carbide on the cutters overlaps to render a continuous, seamless cut.
3. The cutters spiral in opposite directions giving the user flexibility to determine which way the cutters are to be stacked to obtain the best result.
4. Two different diameter bearings are provided with the bit. This feature gives the bit unprecedented versatility. The large diameter bearing is equal in size to the carbide cutters and can be used either on the top of the cutters so the bit functions as a pattern bit duplicating original patterns or on the bottom so the bit functions as a flush cutter for trimming.
5. The small bearing is ¼” smaller in radius than the cutters. If the small bearing is used between the two cutters, the bit will create a ¼’ by ¼” tongue. When the small bearing is positioned on the outside of both cutters, the bit functions as a rabbet bit capable of cutting a ¼” X (up-to) 5/4” rabbet.
6. The bit works well on tricky grain.

The BE adjustable Bull Nose Bit
The Burgess Edge adjustable bull nose bit makes adding a bull nose edge to ¾” material quick and easy. The bit is designed to be used freehand with a straight edge. Therefore it is unnecessary to mount your router in a router table. The bit is particularly useful in conjunction with the Burgess Edge edgebanding system, because the extent of bullnose cut corresponds exactly to the bearing. Simply clamp a straight edge along the plywood veneer.
1. Before we start: This bit is adjustable for material between .690” and .770”. The bearing can be used on the upper or lower side of the two cutters.
2. Unplug your router and secure the router bit in router.
3. Adjust the height of the router base so that the tip of the upper cutter, the one closest to the router, is equal to the plane of the base.
4. Adjust the space between the upper and lower cutters to the thickness of the material you wish to bullnose by adding or subtracting arbor shims between the cutters. The thickness of the material can be determined by holding a small piece on the router base and spinning the bit by hand.
5. Clamp a straight edge 3/8” from the edge of natural wood or along the veneer of the edgebanded plywood,
6. Form a bullnose effortlessly, with no guesswork as to the position of the cut.
