Cutters of this class must be sharpened by filing the bevelled edge, which requires considerable skill in order to preserve the exact shape of the moulding.
SOLID MILLED CUTTERS.
Fig. 3194. Fig. 3195.
In the solid milled cutter the bevelled surface at the cutting end of the cutter is a plane, and a curved, stepped or other shape is given to the cutting edge by cutting or milling suitably shaped recesses on the front face of the cutter as shown in [Figs. 3194] and [3195], the former being a tongue cutter for cutting a groove, and the latter a grooved cutter for cutting a tongue.
