I have a router question!

I need to do a 3/4" round over. Im making a bull nose stair nosing. The bit doesnt fit in a compact router yet iv seen videos of people using one with that bit! I guess my question is what router do i need!

Might the question be instead, the choice of bit for the particular router?

Might the videos have shown cutters with the same form but a different shank not really noticeable in the images?.

@ArishMell the issue i was having was the brand of router i got. The shank fit but the head of the bit didnt fit through the guide of the router. I got a better router and the issue was fixed.

@GuyWithOpinions OK - I'm please you sorted it. Was this a case where the brand you had was made to take only bits made by the same manufacturer?

I bought some angle-grinder discs only to discover they fit the spindle but are too large for the guard - some odd size half-inch larger in diameter.

@ArishMell yeah the brand i was using only had like a 5/8 hole for the bit to fit through.
