Average Rating: Rating: - Great cut and easy to setup ... This dado blade has a guide (in the manual) for setting the correct width, it has almost no chip-out and the cut looks like I cut it with a razor. The true test for me was when I had to make a series of cuts for undersized plywood. The guide told me what to use to get the width of 19/32 of a inch. It took me just a couple of minutes to set the dado blade in table saw and make my test cut. The cut was amazing. The dado was exact and because the blade didn't wobble I set the fence correct the first time. If you are planning on making dados find the money and buy this dado blade you won't regret it. Rating: - Razor Sharp Dados ... I decided on the Freud based on the Freud blades I have own in the pass ... The blade setup guide is a very easy to follow showing all of the milling widths and the combination of blades needed. On my 5 hp Powermatic, I tested 3/4" oak, 5/4" poplar and 3/4" cherry veneer plywood all produced perfectly flat bottoms, no tear-out and cut your finger razor sharp edges. The set includes 6 shims that let you dial-in the milling thinness to match your plywood which is notoriously thinner then its stated size. I would suggest that you label the chippers and the shims as soon as you get them, this greatly speeds up the setup time. The storage case is a great bonus and holds everything very tightly. I would recommend this Dado set to anyone looking to produce professional results. Rating: - Excellent blade As I state in most of my reviews, I don't mind paying a little more to get a little more. If you're like me, this is the blade for you. I'm building a built-in wine rack for my house and wanted to use veneer plywood for the carcass. Well, as anyone knows, you need a _damn_ good blade to crosscut a dado in veneer plywood with no tear-out. This blade performed magnificently. Setup was a snap with the chart. Look up the thickness that you need in the manual, and it tells you which size chipper to use in conjunction with the outside blades. The bottom of the dado was so sqaure that you could use it on an exposed joint, such as a bookcase. The top of the dado was razor sharp and the fit was perfect. Also, this comes complete with a nice, metal, shim set. I've used the paper shim set in the past and you can never get a duplicate thickness once you've torn down the blade. Tighten the arbor screw a little more then last time, compress the paper a little mode and , viola, a thinner dado. Not the case with the metal shims here. One last thing to add is the carry case is a nice touch. Each of the blades and chippers are separated with a plastic ring. The entire thing filts in a small brief-case looking case. Again, well worth the money if you don't mind spending it....
