Q: What's the difference between the two cutter sizes?
The 3/4 and 1" sizes cut 2 3/4" tenons for most rustic furniture, while 1 1/4 to 2" sizes cut 4 1/4" tenons for larger structural connections such as a bed frame to post or a fence rail to post.
05J4121 - Set of 6 Cutters (3/4", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", 1 3/4", 2")

For anyone building rustic furniture, our aluminum-body tenon cutters will cut smooth, perfect tenons with radiused shoulders. Cutters are designed to run vibration-free while being driven by an electric drill, yet still yield the same accuracy when used with a hand brace. The anodized body has been balanced to eliminate vibration and an integral level vial makes in-line cutting more accurate.
To increase safety, the back end of the blade is contoured to avoid anything extending beyond the revolving aluminum body. The body has a built-in honing guide for easy sharpening of blades on a drill-press mounted drum sander. The blade is adjustable to cut the exact size of tenon required in both dry and green wood.
The set of six includes 3/4", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and 2" cutters. The 3/4" and 1" sizes cut 2 3/4" long tenons and are typically used for most rustic furniture. Sizes 1 1/4" to 2" will cut 4 1/4" long tenons and are used for larger structural connections, such as bed frame to post, or fence rail to post. All sizes have hex shanks; the 3/4" and 1" sizes are for use in an electric drill with a 3/8" (or larger) chuck. Sizes 1 1/4" to 2", which require more torque to drive, are for use in larger electric drills with a 1/2" (or larger) chuck. (Not for use in a drill press.) Patented. Made in Canada.
