Hickory Router Bits Have Been Added

Disclaimer: I'm sorry if anyone doesn't like how sales oriented this post is, but when I see a deal like this I want to make sure that my blog readers know about it.

Doug got all the Hickory kits added that I mentioned yesterday. There are kits ranging from $4.99 to $29.99. They're selling pretty quick, so grab 'em while you still can.

Note: Links will quit working when we sell out, as we can't guarantee that more are available. Just click and see what comes up.

RBK1030

This is like the kit that I bought yesterday, but in a 1/4" shank variety and for just $29.99. It includes 24 router bits. Bits include the following:

3/8" keyhole
1/4", 3/8", 1/2" and 3/4" straight
90° 1/2" V-groove
1/2" dovetail
3/32" classical
1/2" and 5/8" core box
1/2" flush trim with bearing
1/2", 3/8", 1/4" and 1/8" roundover with bearing
1" rabbeting with bearing
5/32" roman ogee with bearing
1/4" and 3/8" cove with bearing
1/4" ovolo
1/2" hinge mortizing
45° 1-1/4" chamfer with bearing
1/4" panel pilot (1/2" panel pilot in 1/2" shank set)
3/16" half round

The set I purchased was the RBK1031, which is 1/2" shank bits. Selection is the same, other than the panel pilot bit.

RBK1029

This kit is the little brother of the set above. 12 of the most common pieces with a 1/4" shank for $11.99. Sounds like a bargain to me. If I were going to buy a smaller kit (saving money or if we were out of the larger kits), this one would be my choice. There are some less expensive ones below, but at $1 per bit, these are useful and hard to pass up.


RBK1025

This 5 piece kit for only $6.99 doesn't have a case, but it has some nifty little bits for just a few dollars. My wife is a fan of the keyhole bits, as I mentioned in this post a while back. It's a fun little kit for a few bucks, which is perfect for the title of "Starter Router Bit Set". Who knows... maybe I'll need to have some of those wrapped up to give out for father's day this year.

RBK1026

This 6 piece kit for just $6.99 includes a case and has 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8" and 3/4" straight bits with 1/4" shank. They're great for rabbeting, grooving, dadoing and making joints for drawers, boxes, and picture frames. At this price, maybe the father's day gifts will have one of these wrapped up as well.

FBS1016

This is the set of forstner bits I bought yesterday. It includes 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8", 1", 1-1/8", 1-1/4", 1-3/8", 1-1/2", 1-5/8", 1-7/8", 2" and 2-1/8" bits in a carry case for just $24.99. Not bad for 16 bits at all. Matt even bought a set of these today. I think he was jealous.

FBS1007

This is the bargain of the lot. At just $4.99 for a 7 piece kit with a carry case, that's a steal. It includes 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8" and 1" bits. If none of the others tempted you, then surely the price on this one alone has you thinking of how many sets you're buying for gifts.

Hurry!

I'm not kidding. Some of these will be gone tomorrow morning already. Others will take a few days. But when we run out, we probably can't get more. Porter Cable is dumping the "Hickory" name and will be branding their bits as Porter Cable, so we were able to get these prices only on a limited quantity. The replacements will cost much more when these are gone.
