    Router table / router question

    It was an M4 if anyone was wondering. Ended up buying a selection box from Amazon, which had M3/M4/M5s in three lengths of each 10mm/15mm/20mm £12 so not bad really, I expect they will always come in useful

    I was struggling to find a bull nose at that size, hence I went with the rounding over bit. I had assumed they just didn't exist until I saw your reply, but if we say 16mm = 5/8 inch or 17mm = almost 11/16 inch, have you seen either of those sizes for sale? Would it be cheeky to ask where?
