People have a hard time wrapping their heads around the costs of the skilled trades. I have about 3 grand just in router bits to do the work I do. Here is a photo of some of the bits I use most commonly. I spent most of my evenings this past week sharpening the bits with straight cutters (22 of them), by hand, on a diamond stone. Carbide is too hard to sharpen with regular sharpening stones. The bits with curved cutters go out to a sharpening service.
Enjoyed the project?
