Sorry -- a bit of a random question, but I'm putting down tongue and groove wood flooring, and would like to add tongue and grooves after doing some cross-cuts. Also looking to do herringbone pattern, so will want to machine that nicely.
Anyhow, the wood I'm working with has 11/64" thick tongue / groove. I guess I could approximate with 5/32", but I can't find a bit that does that. I've been looking at cool variable tongue and groove bits, but none go down to that size. I googled for a long time now, also converting to metric to see what I could find.
But I'm new to this -- and may be missing something. A local store guy suggested I just use a 5/32" regular kerf bit and keep adjusting the height to cut the tongue and then the grove, but I fear that's going to be a major pain to keep adjusting.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
The stock is 5/8" thick
The tongue & groove is 11/64" thick and the groove depth is 7/32".
