3/8" Rabbeting Router Bit

• A rabbet is a recess cut into the edge of a workpiece
• The piece that extrudes is called the tongue
• A rabbet joint is the result of joining a rabbet to another piece of wood, typically to construct shelving and cabinet boxes
• A rabbet joint is stronger than a butt joint for two reasons
• The rabbet increases the amount of surface area available for glue
• And when a piece of wood fits tightly into a rabbet, the vertical side of the groove prevents it from leaning in that direction and breaking the joint
