I have a complete set of these bits but find no instructions on how they are usedHere are some quick thoughts. Use most of them just as you would a regular router. Look at the cutting head of each one. That is the shape it will make. The standard Carving and Cutting bits are designed for specific jobs. The carving bit is use on for patterns from the library (and other Raster carves, like raised text).
The straight cutting bit is for cut paths, drilling, and other milling type operations.
The fancy bits may be used on vector lines and edges. The V-bits are what are used, in most cases, for Centerline Text applications.
