There is also more gluing area so the joint is stronger than a straight miter.

The bit is ideal for joining drawer boxes cabinet parts and for building 4-sided columns. To make setting the cutter height easy and fool-proof use the Rockler Router Bit Set-up Jig 53817 sold separately to center the bit on your stock.
