I recently purchased the Amana Tool® Bullseye Rosette Cutter System and am very pleased with the design and performance. I would like to know if I can use this cutter in my router?
The Rosette Cutter is not recommended for use with a router for several reasons: 1.) the maximum rated R.P.M. for the Rosette Cutter is too slow for a router; 2.) a router is not stable enough; and 3.) the Rosette Cutter does not have a center point (as with a standard drill bit). For these reasons, this type of tool is recommended only for use in a heavy-duty drill press, milling machine or lathe. Furthermore, the workpiece must be securely clamped and a relatively slow feed rate should be used.
