I think one of the best ways I can help is to create a resource page that you can always come to for the best tools. I’ll add to it as I learn more, I recommend bookmarking it for your reference and convenience. Enjoy!

UP SPIRAL BITS

Up spiral bits have helical shaped flutes which eject the saw dust upward out of the kerf. They leave a rough top surface and a smooth bottom surface. Use this bit for pocketing toolpaths and profile cut.
Laser Point V Bit  The CMT Laser point Bit is the V Bit that I use most often. It has a very sharp tip that is exactly centered on the bit. The center of the carved letters is crisp and requires very little sanding.   http://amzn.to/1eL2gXn
Magnate Bottom Planing Bit This bit makes surfacing your spoil board simple. A flat surface is essential to making repeatable cuts. The carbide cutter on this bit shave the MDF spoil board flat. Use a dust collection system because it will get dusty. http://amzn.to/1LZbFZn
Rotozip Chuck Adapter Kit. Finding a way to hold a 1/8" bit in a full size router can be difficult. The CH01 Chuck Adapter fits into a 1/4" collet. It runs very true and doesn't cost a fortune. http://amzn.to/1HRgS2F
