Traditionally, making rail and stile cabinet doors requires a matched set of shaper cutters that create a cope cut on the ends of the rails or the sticking cut on the inside edges of the door frame pieces. The cutterheads must be swapped out of the machine to switch between the two cuts. With the Infinity Cutting Tools Insert-Pro 1 Pc. Cabinet Shaper Cutter, both the rail and stile cuts are made with a single head. This has a couple of major benefits. First, there's no swapping of cutterheads required to make each type of cut. This saves valuable time in the shop. With the 1-pc. cutterhead, all you need to do is raise or lower the spindle to switch between cuts.
The beauty of the Infinity Insert-Pro Cabinet Door Shaper Cutter system is that it allows you to replace the insert-style, C-4 micro-grain carbide knives quickly and easily if they become damaged or when they become dull. This special carbide is harder and takes a keener edge than any carbide used in a braised cutterhead. Because of this, you can expect a super-clean cut from the insert knives long after a traditional cutterhead would need to be resharpened.
If a project design requires a new cabinet door profile, the Insert-Pro 1 pc. Cabinet Door Shaper cutter head will accept all five profiles of replacement knives.
This means that If your cutterhead is set up with ogee knives and you need to make a cabinet door with an Art Deco profile, all you need is a pair of replacement knives in the Art Deco profile. It just takes a minute or two to change out the knives before you get back to work.
The Infinity Cutting Tools 1-pc. Cabinet Door Shaper Cutter is available in 1-1/4" bore for use on shapers with a 1-1/4" spindle. If your shaper has a 3/4", 1", or 30mm spindle, Infinity offers a complete line of T-bushings that adapt the spindle for the Insert-Pro cutterhead. If you need a rub collar to ease setup or to follow a template for making arch-top or cathedral-top doors, Infinity has the a rub collar that is a perfect match. Even if your not making Arched Top doors we recommend using our precision rub collar for fast and accurate setup. Simply align the edge of the rub collar with the fence faces when making straight cuts.
