Ken,

They aren't the very best but they are worth more than the price. I've bought a few at WW shows and I've been happy with them. At the last show, I got the 13 pc dovetail set for $60. I don't normally buy my bits in sets yet only 2 bits have gone unused.

I have made about 75 boxes with little or no degradation of cut. I use the ½" 14° bit the most and with regular cleaning, it cuts just as well as when it was new.

All of my bits are Whiteside, Bosch and Woodline and the Woodline are at par with the others. I don't buy cheap but I do look for value.

Thanks BOB

The prices looked good, so I figured I'd ask prior to ordering. Need a couple of rail/style sets for some up coming projects ( re-do kitchen cabinet doors).

Ken,

I just got a catalog featuring CMT bits. Prices looked really good, when I get back South I will see if I can dig it up for you and pass on the website.

Blessings,

Another place you may want to consider for reasonably priced bits, that are decent quality is MLCS. You can find them at

Keystone,
I've purchased bits from Woodline.

There are two quality levels at Woodline, good and almost as good. The ones that are painted white seem to be better than the ones that are painted blue. In terms of quality the Woodline bits are not as good as CMT, Viper, Whiteside, Amana, Jesada and others. The Woodline bits are better than what you would expect for the price.

"The Woodline bits are better than what you would expect for the price."

That's what I was wondering.

With that said, I just went ahead and got the ammana set. I know what I'm getting with them! Guess somethings are worth the extra $$.

Thanks for the replies guys!
