New Bit Alert!
Bits & Bits now manufactures metric bit sizes 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm on 1/2” and 1/4” Shanks
Our Metric bits are engineered for CNC shops running metric CAD/CAM workflows that cut hardwood panels or solid stock. The cut diameter is ground true to metric—no imperial rounding—so toolpaths and finished part dimensions remain exact from program to part. They are CNC-only production tools intended for professional cabinet and furniture workflows.

Teaching in Nicaragua is so rewarding. The guys love the lathe and they got their first try on a router. These two tools can open up a world of opportunity for them. Thanks to @klingsporswoodworkingshop and @bitsbitscompany for helping get tools to the school. #woodworkingshop #woodworking #woodshop #teachingwoodworking #nicaragua
Building a sauna kit… Attaching the shiplap slightly proud, then flush trimming with a router for a clean edge.

I Chose poplar for the interior to keep costs down while still using a sauna-safe material.
Found this on the web.
Poplar, part of the willow family, is naturally pale yellow in color, with a smooth texture. Common in the Northern Hemisphere, it belongs to the same genus as aspen (Populus tremula), and it’s similarly ideal for sauna benches and interiors – the wood has no exposed knots and it doesn’t splinter, secrete resin, or overheat.
Good morning from the shop ☀️
Dialing in these 2” thick walnut bases for a customer’s display case, trimming everything flush with the monster flush-cut bit from @bitsbitscompany
Heavy stock, tight tolerances, and this thing just chews without chatter or tear-out. Exactly how I like my mornings in the shop.
👉 If you’ve ever fought a flush cut on thick hardwood, drop a 🤘 in the comments and tell me what bit you’re running.

We had a few questions about CNC end milling at the school, so here is a quick 1 minute video that should help. We use a desktop CNC with the T-track table removed and replaced with a custom edge clamp. This setup can be easily modified for any end milling needs like mortise & tenon, through dovetails, dowels, etc.
Hope this helps!
If you have an end mill setup we would like to see it, please share it with us!
