Make full size Stile and Rail joints on your router table. The interlocking design plus the raised panel groove are both cut in one pass. Ball bearing guides control the cutting depth an also allow use on rounded, arched, or special shaped doors.
With these two piece sets, simply switch router bits to change from cutting stile to cutting rails. Ideal for stock from 5/8" to 7/8" thick. Carbide tipped router bits, all are 1/2" shank.
Construction Tip: You can make Stile & Rail cuts for glass doors using Whiteside's Door Construction Sets. No extra components are required. All that's needed is to stagger the cutting edges and "stack" both groovers on the Stile bit. Use both bearings (no groover) on the Rail bit. Make your cuts just like in normal door construction. Cut the inside edges of all four pieces with the Stile bit. Trim the ends of the Rails with the Rail bit. Assemble door and insert glass pane. Use clips or corner trim mold on the back side to hold the pane in place.D = Diameter; CL = Cutting Length; RW= Reveal Width; SH = Shank Diameter; OL = Overall Length.
