I use the ?¡± groover in the Freeborn stack, and if using a flat panel, I will use ?¡± material (MDF for paint grade) and profile the back edge of the panel to fit the groove precisely. ?For that profiling operation I use a Whitehill panel raising cutter so the transition from ? to ? has a nice scallop shape.?

?Hello all,
I want to buy a set of Freeborn Cope and Pattern cutters for a cabinet project.? Freeborn gives you the option of choosing the center groover's width and depth of cut.? The standard is 1/4" x 3/8".? I routine purchase 1/4-inch plywood, but none of it ever is truly 1/4-inch in thickness.? The thickness varies from batch to batch, so I always adjust my groove cutter or dado set to match the material.? For this Freeborn set, I want to ask which center groover option people recommend? Also, beside Whitehill in the UK, where else are top-hat bushings available for purchase to adapt the Freeborn cutters from 1 1/4 inch bore to a 30mm spindle on a KF700SP?? The archive mentions Paul Jordan's company, but I can't find it using the common search engines.??
I am looking at PC-10-060, PC-10-050, or PC-10-070.??
Thanks!
