    A question about the rollover cutout. Does the bit you recommend not bite into the wood? I pick up a Firepower tomorrow and already have a hardtop in order and this is the one part that that seems like it would be easy to FU.

    Quoted from vid1900:

    The plastic is softer than the wood, so it just quickly eats away.
    The wood will still have some old mastic still on it, so you will instantly feel the **tug** of when the bit touches it.
    It's not something you are likely to mess up, so relax, and it will go fine.

    Is there enough room for a top mount bearing guide on a router bit?
