Fantastic Dado Stack
By Charles
This stack received great reviews in fine woodworking and was the main reason I purchased it from Woodcraft for around $130. The dado set produces perfect flat bottom dados and rabbets. I've run the set in my small professional shop for three years on a variety of projects including several that incorporated plywood, which is very abrasive and have not had to resharpen yet. It comes with shims so you can produce tight fitting joints on sanded plywood. The hard plastic case with foam interior has kept the blades safe when not in use. There isn't one problem that I've had with the product over the last few years. One small piece of advice, keep our feed rate down so that the blades can do the work. If you push through too quickly the workpiece will have a tendency to drift especially if you cutting dados larger than 1/2" and are holding the material by hand.
