bedsides we don't have a section for cutting up washing up bowls ;D Why not  I think we should be told........ ;D Because Jason had a bad experience with one and it should be left to him to tell the tale. |

Just as a matter of interest Jason,
How does the cutter last with the MDF ?, as its a large surface to cut
What brand of cutter did you use ?
Cheers,
Gazza.

Perform then, thats interesting,
I have been lead to believe that they wernt great.
Freud and CMT would be my normal cutters(perform are half the price) followed by Wealden, although the last couple of core box cutters i got from Wealden didnt last a crack cutting flutes in MR MDF.
Cheers,
Gazza.

I've laid out stupid money for cutters and the only ones ive had burning are the trend ones , In fact the only ones that cost stupid money are the trend ones  Most of my router work is MDF so i am gonna knock the ar*e out of the cutter any way so i buy the cheaper ones thinking i may have to replace them but i dont need to . Ok on timber you need them sharp but MDF they will last for years IMHO . |

I've not had that problem because of the cutters , it's normally the MDF . I have lost count of how many doors i have made with my Fraud cabinet door set but they are still spot on . Must of had them ten years .
