I have an amana 2.5" bit but at 250.00 it is an investment. you can get a amana 1.75" mortise bit for around 40.00

I have used a 2" 6-wing carbide cutter. Cost is $100.00 or so, the best value I could find. Mike Harvey has the info, he just bought one for his Buddy. Mike?

I use a 2" Southeast Tool surfacing bit. Part #SE2990. Worked well for my application.

I just use the widest straight bit I have in the shop. 3/4" in my case. It takes 20 minutes on a PRT.
