Skil 91024 24-Piece Carbide Router Bit Set

So I just got these off of Amazon. I know that they are not the highest quality set, but they were better than what I had (nothing). I have used Skil bits before and while they certainly not the best, they have always gotten the job done for me. Again for the price (less than $45) it was hard to say no.

Mostly I wanted to make this post because when trying to research this set I could not find anything anywhere regarding what is included in this set and I figured now that I have it in my hands I may as well inform anyone else who may be considering purchasing this set.

Straight—1/4”, 3/8”, 1/2” and 3/4”
Hinge Mortising—1/2”
Panel Pilot—1/4”
V-Groove—1/2”
Corebox—1/4”, 1/2”
Ovolo—1/4”
Dovetail—3/8”, 1/2”
Keyhole—3/8”
Laminate Trim—1/2”
Roundover—1/8”, 1/4”, 3/8”, and 1/2”
Cove—1/4” 3/8”
Roman Ogee—5/32”
Chamfer—45 deg
Rabbeting—7/8”
Half Round/Bead—3/16”

Box that they all came in isn’t the best, but lets be honest that isn’t why you buy the set. You buy it to have a variety of bits for not a lot of money. We’ll see how they work once I get some dust flying.
