The depth a router will cut with a router bit depends on how much of the bit is exposed below the base of the router. Most routers allow you to adjust the cutting depth, typically ranging from a shallow surface cut up to about 2 inches deep, depending on the size of the bit and the router's capacity. Always ensure the bit is securely installed and do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended depth for safety. Make sure your router has enough power to make these tougher cuts.
