Another idea. I use the MLCS Shear Angle Flush Trim bit. Not spiral but does a pretty good job if you are careful. Look for #7811 it is 2" cutting length with 1/2" shank. If you don't need the bearing it is easily removed. There are other straight flush bits with top and/or bottom mounted bearings but they have no shear angle.

Googled around haven’t had much luck.
Any ideas?

Thanks Arlin, the 3/8 x 1 1/4 might work on an upcoming project.

They had one a bit longer they what you asked for on the current project that is if you are doing an outer edge then this
#17469 upcut 1/2" 2" 4" 1/2"
$55.95
However, if you are making a groove then the 1/2 would be to wide and you would have to go the 3/8"

C.M. Description says that bit is for foam, not sure what would happen if it was used on wood.
