Check the R18 profile and holder
Confirm that an R18 groove matches the intended bend and panel thickness. Match the 12.7 mm shank to the collet or machine holder. Use the profile drawing as a reference, then test the groove on an offcut before routing finished panels.
Before routing a panel
- Compare the R18 profile with the finished panel detail.
- Match the 12.7 mm shank to the holder.
- Set a controlled groove depth and support the panel.
- Check the resulting bend on an offcut.
- Stop if the decorative surface chips or cracks.
