Conventional raised panel shaper cutters tend to have some pretty inconvenient limitations, especially if you have a preference about your feed direction and face orientation. Those days of compromise are over, though, because the new Infinity Tools Insert Pro Raised Panel Shaper Cutter will let you run your material in whichever direction and orientation you want! These exclusive new shaper system will also let you stack two raised panel heads so you can run both sides of an interior/exterior door panel with a single setup, producing a perfect fitting tongue in one operation and setup only! Want a back-cut raised panel for your cabinet doors? No problem. You can use the Insert Pro System to get perfect fitting panels every time. Here's how it works...
The Infinity Tools Insert Pro Raised Panel Head is superbly simple. The main body of the raised panel cutter is made of aircraft-grade aluminum with anodizing for durability, and then is precision balanced for super-smooth operation. All this ensures that the cutter head will run perfectly on any shaper that will accept a 6" diameter cutter. All the cutters in the Insert Pro line have a 1-1/4" bore for use on 1-1/4" spindles, but will also run perfectly on a shaper with 30mm, 1", or 3/4" spindle simply by adding a set of T-bushings.
The beauty of our exclusive Insert Pro Raised Panel Head is that it uses replaceable C4 Micro-grain carbide knives. This system allows the user to easily swap out the knives when they become dull or damaged. Also, the single raised panel cutter head will accept any of the five available profiles of replacement knives (Ogee, Standard, Cove, Shaker, & Art Deco) allowing the user to simply swap out knives when a job demands a different profile. Yes, all five profiles are available in both clockwise (SX) and counterclockwise (DX) rotation.
And that's really where this new design for the Infinity Tools Insert-Pro Raised Panel Shaper Cutter System sets itself apart, because the last thing that you want to do is change the way all of your other shaper accessories are set up just to accommodate a new cutter head. With this system, the cutter head changes to fit your regular workflow.
Let's say that your shaper cutter is set up to run the spindle counter-clockwise and that your power feeder requires you to run the board face up. Simply use the SX version of the Raised Panel Cutter.
Now let's say you need to run a panel in the same rotation but this time with the panel face down. Again, no problem; just use the same raised panel head and replace the SX knives with a set of DX knives.
Best of all, if you are making interior/exterior doors and need to raise both sides of the panel, this system will allow you to shape both sides of the panel at the same time! Just get yourself two cutter heads, one set of SX knives, one set of DX knives, and one 2-3/4" Infinity Rub Collar.
If you need to make a door panel for an exterior door, the Exterior Door Making Kit (84-058) eliminates all the guesswork and setup time. Simply add it between the rub collar and top panel raising head and go to work.
To complete your system, add an Insert-Pro 1 Pc. Rail and Stile Shaper Cutter Head so your cope and stick cuts will also benefit from the replaceable knife system.
If you're worried that changing the knives in these heads will be an undertaking - don't be. Knife changes are quick and easy. Plus, each head comes packaged with the correct tool for the job. Replacing a knife in the Insert Pro Raised Panel Head is as simple as removing the two screws that hold the knife in place (left), dropping the new knife into the head (center), and reinstalling the two screws (right). The raised panel head comes with built-in stops that eliminate all the guesswork. Simply seat the knife against those stops and tighten down the screws. That's it!
Conventional shaper cutters cause downtime and are more expensive to run than our new system. Whether you're a serious home enthusiast or a full-service cabinet shop, making the switch to the Infinity Tools Insert-Pro shaper cutters will yield beautiful results while saving you time and money.
