   They sell whiteside bits, good bits. Cant find it here then i dont know where to send someone for bits. THey are typically called template bits if the bearing is on the top

   CMT will also make topbearing bits in this size. dont have a site handy though.

   *Hi,I've looked at their sites, and unfortunately, I can't locate a "top bearing" groove cutter which doesn't have a locking nut on the bottom. I hadn't realized that it wouldn't be an obvious choice.Doing a google search on slot cutters or templatecutters didn't yield the answer either.Does anyone from FH feel like asking the author for us (me)?Thanks,Larry

   *Thank you very much! I've ordered my router bit. FWIW, FHomebuilding has been instrumental to me designing and executing a 3200ft^2 addition on the side of my house. While I hired out the site work, poured concrete and brick veneer I've done the rest with the help of my wife and friends. Taunton Press has played a major role in making this possible.(www.ee.cua.edu/~schuette/house
