Looking for companies to develop my new
Over the last few months I was looking through my tool catalogues and began to think that the current selection of router bits could use some new and fresh designs. as of today I have designed over 40 bits that can be used for casings, baseboards and chair rail moldings. I have asked a few router bit companies such as MLCS, Freud, Pentair (Delta & Porter-Cable), Sommerfeld Tools (CMT), Infinity, and Magnate. MLCS has been extremely open to my designs and already have several being produced. check out their June catalogue as some will be in it. MLCS has been very helpfull and still want more designs. Magnate has declined totally, I have yet to hear from the other companies. Could anyone suggest any other companies I could send my designs too? Do any of you want to see more router bit profiles on the market? I’m not doing this to profit in any way. My agreement with MLCS is that I get one free copy of every new design that they put into production. Not much too ask for and they agree. I’d love to hear any feedback on this idea.
Thanks kindly

any chance you could post the profiles of what you designed, just curious
and one free bit for anything they produce... seems to me you're selling yourself a bit short
Actually, friday I got an email from MLCS, who are about to release their june catalogue with some of my designs in it, and the head of the company told me I could have $250 in free merchandise including the free bits. Eagle America is another company that offers the same amount but I'm currently dealing with MLCS.
