I need to do several large carvings in hard maple and to cut down the time, I'm considering a different carving bit than the 1/16". According to LHR bit selection, the 1/8" is only for soft wood or foam, so that rules it out. I'm considering the 3/16" bit was curious of the quality of the final carve. I realize there will be some sanding required to clean it up, but has anyone had good results using it? If so, any precautions or advice to take ahead of time?
Thanks in advance.
