Description:

The bits, designed by professional woodworker Lonnie Bird, create smooth, clean lines for constructing offset mortise-and-tenon joints for Mission Style glass doors. Each bit features two cutters that cut a tenon with offset shoulders, which enables a quicker and easier way for glass panels to fit in rabbeted doors. The bits are manufactured from exclusive micro-grain carbide for superior cutting performance and tool longevity and are ideal for materials that are 3/4” to 1-1/8” thick.

“The offset mortise-and-tenon bits allow woodworkers to easily create classic Mission Style furniture, cabinets and architectural woodwork by reducing the number of steps in the project,” said Lonnie Bird. “I’ve been using Amana’s products for 16 years and have found that they provide the cleanest cuts and longest lasting edges in the industry.”

The mortise-and-tenon line contains two tenon bits, one that cuts a 1/4” tenon with a 1/4” offset (item number 53630) and one that cuts a 3/8” tenon (item number 53632). To create the mating mortise, Amana Tool offers a complete selection of hollow mortising chisels as part of its Timberline series. Item number 609-120 cuts a 3/8” mortise, and item number 609-100 cuts a 1/4” mortise. Amana Tool’s Super Rabbet, item number 49360, is used for shaping the rabbet for glass and is available with a complete set of accessory collars and an assortment of guide bearings to cut any size rabbet
