How To Set-Up Your Cutters

Full profiles for thick interior or exterior passageway doors -- If you want both sides of the door to reveal the same bead-and-cove edge, use the cutter set-ups shown in Figures 2 & 3. 

Start with the three largest of the six cutters (
A,B,C) and set them in front of you in the configuration shown in Figure 2. This set-up will be used to cut the full length of the inside edges of both the stiles and rails, as indicated by "X" in Figure 1.

Now, take the three smallest of the six cutters (
E,F,G) and set them in front of you in the configuration shown in Figure 3. This set-up will be used to cut the mirror-image profile in the ends of the rails, indicated by "Y" in Figure 1.

When set-up properly, the sticking (male) cut made in the inside edges of all stiles and rails (X) by the cutter configuration shown in Figure 3 will stick nicely into the coping (female) cut made in the ends of the rails (Y) by the cutter configuration shown in Figure 4.
