How to use it
A bullnose bit rounds the whole edge of a board in one pass, top and bottom, into a half-circle. It is the profile for stair treads, window sills, shelf fronts, countertop edges and handrails. The nose diameter, twice the radius, is the stock thickness that gets a full 180Β° round with no flats. On thicker stock you get a flat at the top and bottom of the curve. To pick a size, halve your stock thickness: 3/4 in. material wants a 3/8 in. radius. This bit has no bearing, so it must run against a router table fence or with an edge guide on a handheld router.
