I just noticed that clicking on router bits at the international site takes you to Amana. Click on Freund and you get to Freund bits, but click on Bosch which they used to have and no bits!
Never used Amana but they have a good rep. Mostly you buy the one that comes in the size and type you need and not worry too much about brand. Carbide is carbide, bits is bits. But always buy SOLID carbide whenever possible; safer, cleaner and longer lasting. Expensive.
Don't buy sets, do buy deals and close-outs.
The only junk I've run across is Black and Decker and the Wolf-something that my Home DEpot carries.
The Freund base is a little diferent so check. You can always drill and countersink your own holes. Just go buy a 1/4" piece of acrylic. It ain't magic. The Jasper jig is drilled for the Freund but you could make your own as I have always done until recently.
