router bit question

looking to do a fancy edge on 1 inch pine from the box stores. This
wood is really 3/4 inch wide. The router bit catalogs all list
'height' or "carbide height".
Does this include the roller on these bits? What sort of 'height' do
I want for 3/4 wide wood?
"height" is the actual cutter height and does NOT include the pilot
bearing.
You can make lots of various "fancy" edges using a cove and/or a round
over bit used either as a stand alone or in combination..
If you mount the router in a table and use a fence, you can remove the
pilot bearing on a cove bit and get an attractive edge.
Have fun.

What kind of an edge are you trying to develop?
