That might be true on a milling machine.  But my wood routers are hand held
tools and I might be cutting plywood or white pine i.e. construction grade
douglas fir that is still wet.  The blades get dunked up long before the
carbine dulls.   A while back I cute hundreds of finger joints in 3/4"
thick pine and the pine has pitch in it.But this is all carpentry, not
machining

Yes, there is a way, and he is doing it.

That's what "trochoidal path" is all about.

Honestly we hardly ever have to clean our tools, but we don't mill much pitchy 
wood, mostly hardwoods and MDF.  For us if a tool is getting clogged up, it is 
because it is too dull and is getting too hot, or the feed rate is way to slow 
and it got too hot.  Either way it usually ends up in the bin.

What is the best way to clean plywood glues off small carbide router bits?

I use small carbide bits to work wood and sometimes plywood.  Mostly 
smaller than 3mm(1/8 in) bits.
Sometimes plywood glue melts onto the bits.Cleaning them is a 
problem.  Suggestions?
