Sorry for the ignorance, but am I right in assuming the 'shank' is the part of the bit that 'connects' with the router?
If I’m correct, can a router take both 1/4" & 1/2" shanks, or can they only take one of the other?
Anyway, what I was planning to do was to buy one of these bearings and put them on my router bit.

So for example, I would buy this and use it with the 1/2" diameter bit that came with the router:

Would that work? Or would I need to get a bit that already has a bearing on it?
Thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate your help!
