Router Bits 45 deg miter

[BrianJA]

I am looking to do miter fold in 3/4 mdf. I can use my OF 1400 on a rail. What would be a good bit to use.
thanks

The Kreg bits are nice bits. Make sure you order one tall enough for your stock.

Looking at the link Tom posted I don't think that they will work for a miter fold if they don't come to a point.  One brand of bits that are often mentioned is Amana.  Here is a link to the Amana site:  http://www.amanatool.com/products/cnc-router-bits/signmaking-cnc-router-bits/v-groove-miter-fold-signmaking-cnc-router-bits.html

I have this bit, http://www.toolstoday.com/p-5606-cnc-v-groove-router-bits.aspx.  I bought the middle sized one to make the 90% angle cut for making attachments to my MFT that fit into the top groove of the side extrusions.  It is a beast of a bit and I would not use it in a light weight router.  I only use it in my router table.

Those Amana bits are nice but $162 price tag may not be what you're looking for.  Whiteside makes very good router bits and since you are using a guide a regular chamfer bit seems like it work.

I bought my Amana for $69. - 45728-CNC http://www.toolstoday.com/p-5606-cnc-v-groove-router-bits  I do have quite a few Whiteside bits and they work well also.
