Can cut 3-1/2" Hinge w/5/8" radius corners ?

I have had this rig for several years. In our area, even seven figure homes have 5/8" radius corners. I have replaced doors with solid core for several customers and have bought half the hinges 5/8 radius corners to fit the existing jambs and half 3/8 radius to work with the new doors then I combine the two hinge types to accomplish a hybrid hinge.

I had to find a special router bit to fit the kit and do the job. Don't remember where I purchased the bit.

The included router bit and guide are really for square corner hinges not the kind with rounded corners (called 5/8"). For these you need to buy a 1 1/4" router bit (Porter Cable #43442) and the 1 35/64" O.D. template guide (Porter Cable #42048.)

yes. that's basically small radius. what the other poster is referring to is full radius which you'll find on tract houses.even if your doing square hinges the starting point is small radius. it's then "squared" by a corner chisel.

Sure can. Make sure to use a high-quality ultra-fine finish blade when you rip it to width, and go slowly. You don't want to splinter the edges.

I am pretty sure you are limited to 8 and a half inches wide-you would have to scan partials and piece together. Maybe put together in a software program. I am guessing it would be a lot of time and trouble to be perfect. I do think this is a great product but would personally not use for large projects.

Width of 6 inches can be cut, but no wider. And I wouldn't go thicker than 2 inches, too much effort. Time for power tools.

You will have to scribe the corner to cut. I have done this many times. Most directions have the information on how to do this. So the answer to your question is that it is not a problem, just an extra step.

Yes. I cut arcs to fit a corner shelf and it wasn't a problem. I simply drew the shape I needed on the liner, then followed the line to cut by. It is very smooth.

I'm not sure but it's possible. I use mine to wrangle plastic lids and some of those lids are square. It works great for plastic lids!

Sorry, but this piece of plastic is fairly ridged. I would not try to shape it or make a radius curve.

You could cut a hole about 8 inches in diameter (outside diameter). Would strongly suggest additional honing to the cutter head.

Not really. The hinge location recesses have been chiseled out already. I guess it would be possible theoretically, but it would take a lot of hassle and woodworking.

Relatively cleanly I've cut 3/8". More ragged it'll do 1/2". I've never tried anything beyond that. I think the 700i is rated to 5/8", in case you're fabricating a battleship.

You could cut a center hole and not "hit" a hinge. But cutting the hole is not going to be a easy task. Both sides of the 2 centers are "L" shaped for strength. Not a simple cut. And the integrity of the table will be compromised. Sharon is correct in her post. I strongly suggest no. You would be ruining a very good table.

I have cut 3/8 inch plexiglass, and it did just fine. It is not a machine for heavy daily use, but if you need it for home use, it does great.

no problem...you can slide the gate and set it at any width...mine is a total of 33.5 inches including hinge,etc...I could easily narrow it by 5 inches or so.

Yes, no problem, you can cut to length. But then of course the cut edge will not be finished like the other three edges.

Yes, but use a "hot knife" or a rotary disc, because it is styrene-type hard plastic, and difficult to cut. They also cut to fit, I believe at extra cost, and worth it.

You will have to cut them. You need about 1/2" to 3/4" clearance on each side and about an 1" top and bottom. Be careful not to take too much off the panels or you cut into the pin holes. It is best to take more off at hinge area as there are no pin holes there.
