Bits for binding

Post by aaron »

Back again. So I've closed the box and have started pulling together what I need for routing the bindings on my Martin D-18 kit. I have a ryobi handheld trim router like this, and have ordered the KMG adjustable guide. Both of these items might as well be moon rocks to me, but I persevere. Now I am looking into the world of router bits and feel lost. What bit should I be using to route the binding channels? Is there one standard bit or are there options (and if so what is best)? Or am I limited in what I can use because of the tools I have?

I bought the binding attachment from a fellow member here and it worked great. Here is a link to the bit that I used: http://www.bamcarbide.com/1shx1cutdix21.html
