where can I buy a 1/4 drawer locking bit for 12mm

[johnny]

looked all over the place and I can only find 2x sources both abroad . One in the US and the other China.
I'm looking for a 1/4" drawer locking bit for use with 12mm thick timber .
Interestingly there is a 'How To' on this site featuring the CMT lock bit but Axminster no longer stock these bits.

try biven.

If they dont list it, they may still have it, or be able to order it.

Scott and Sargeant do the CMT.

 

[marcros]

is it the drawer lock mitre or the baby lock mitre bit that you are looking for?

IIRC the how to video is the latter, the links on the thread are the former.

If I remember looking myself, there are not many lock mitre bits around that will let you go as thin as the CMT baby one.

I think the mini Whiteside one is the one, they do two sizes. He won't see my post anyway, you might have to quote my post if you think it's right marcros.

I believe its the 855:502 type that I need in the second video

 

[marcros]

in that case, it is probably the easier of the 2 to source and Wuffles link is correct.

I have this one from Rutlands http://www.rutlands.co.uk/sp+woodwo...k-bit-d=1-1-4-h=1-2-a=15°-s=1-4-tornado+tr245
I've not found it very satisfactory with plywood, maybe it would cut cleaner on birch ply rather than the WBP that I use, but as the OP intends to use it on ply I thought it worth mentioning.

Where did you buy it from?
Just did a search on E-bay and found something. Did you look there?
