When cutting a T slot you must first cut the slot with a straight bit for the Cutting height, or depth because that is the key because it defines how deep a slot or groove will be and gives the T Slot cutter the alignment you need to make in a single pass. A greater cutting height allows for deeper grooves, which is essential for certain joinery or panel applications, while a shorter height is good for shallow slots or fine detail work. For example, the Amana Tool 53200 features a 1/16" cutting height for delicate work, whereas the Amana Tool 55510 offers an adjustable 1/4-1/2" cutting height, used for different tasks. There are many tool options available, so users can find the right cutting height for their specific job. Always remember the right quality tool will give you the best job outcome and will keep your customers returning .
