Review: Absolutely terrific! - I could not be more satisfied with the superb performance of this dado set. The cuts were super clean with a perfectly flat, even, clean bottom of the cut. The shim set lets you adjust thickness to the closest 5/1000 of an inch. And since different lots of wood can vary slightly in thickness, using a digital micrometer on your wood tells you pretty closely what adjustments, if any, you need to make with shims. But in the end, you still need to do a test cut using some of the same wood, checking joint fit, and tweaking the cutting width if needed. Totally worth the investment.
Review: Way better than the price would indicate... - I have turned some very expensive wood into sawdust and regret. Surely with this tool I can do so at a much faster pace. I have never used a stack dado set before but some would-be-wood-worker-guys on YouTube make it look pretty easy, and most of them have their fingers. So how hard can it be? I threw away the instructions ‘cause, who needs those? When you have 3lbs of steel spinning at 6,000 rpm who cares about that? The center hole for the arbor is extremely close tolerance (and for good reason) which made installation and removal a bit challenging but when installed, very very secure. The instructions indicate the blade stack and shims are “under rated” or “under sized” to accommodate the nominal thickness of various woods. So I took them at face value and installed the 3/4” setup. Now, let me be clear, I have NEVER used a dado set before. I took out my calipers and measured the stack installed and tightened. Just short of .75” as promised. So far so good. Used a square to measure cut depth. So far so good. Set up the fence to center the cut at 4” from the desired edge. So far so good. With nervous anticipation green button, on. Soft start up, check. Dust collection, on. All seems to be going to plan. No noises. No vibrations. No issues. Time to put the wood to it! The cut quality was PERFECT! No tear out, no truly discernable ridges in the cut. The chippers made relatively clean cuts the whole distance. My first dado cut was 25” of pure success. The fitment of the dado was near perfect as far as I could tell. I glued it up, threw in a screw or four and all is well. I wiped the blades down as they had plenty of oil to protect them. The shipping/storage box is not pretty but adequate to protect them. Would recommend to anyone needing the occasional dado cut.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this compare to the Freud sd208? It's not too much more, but is it really a lot better?**
A: Slight advantage to the Oshlun over the Freud 208, mainly due to having more teeth.  The Oshlun isn't quite as clean as the DW/Delta 7670 though, which tends to run a bit higher in price.  Any of those will have significantly better performance than the $30-$50 sets from Avanti, HF, Mibro, Vermont American, Promax, and others.  However, none of these entry level sets do as well as the premium sets from Infinity, Freud, Forrest, Systimatic, Ridge Carbide, etc @ $200+, mainly due to the design and quality of manufacture...there really is a notable difference, but the better ~ $90+ sets can be "good nuff". It all boils down to need, usage, economics, and priorities.

**Q: I have a 10 inch Roybi portable saw.  Which set would be more approiate the 6 inch ? or the 8 inch?**
A: Don't know if you are still thinking about this, but I have a Ryobi BT3100 and although in theory it could use 8" dado blades, it can't. I got some 8" off CL at an excellent price, but when I put them in, they rub against the body of the saw. There is a little bump out there for some reason. Thus the manufacturer says 6" blades. I could use it if I were to use only  a small cut, but what's the point. So check this out with your saw. Sometimes the manufacturer actually may know something.

**Q: Can a Dado cut the tongue of a tongue and groove or would I need a router. Right now using several pass method on a table saw but impricise**
A: It can, but there are more appropriate tools that can cut a tongue & groove with a lot less set up time. A dado will need spacers & shims which may need to be made to get the spacing you require for the tongue to be made in one pass.

**Q: will this fit a dewalt 7491rs table saw with the insert that came with the saw?**
A: I have a Dewalt 745 and it worked just like the supplied blade. My saw won't accept a regular stacked dado set but this set works great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Oshlun SDS-0842 Dado Blades
*by J***N on September 12, 2013*

Product was shipped and delivered promptly after order was placed. The blade set I received was in the aluminum case with heavy foam support around perimeter and foam sheets in between all blades. I am a weekend hobby woodworker and never used dado blades before the purchase. These work great for me! All the blades and shims in my set came clearly marked and I found it easy to make slight adjustments and dial in the exact width of cut I needed. I have a 15+ yr old JET JWTS series contractor saw and the blades and shims went on and off my factory 5/8" arbor with no problems. I will say that the shims can be a little tricky as they tend to find their way down into the arbor threads so be careful with that. All the blade teeth were complete and sharp (no nicks or quality issues as some other reviewers have cited). I have used once so far making many dado slots in MDF. The cuts were clean with a smooth, flat bottom. As the manufacturer clearly explains in the included literature the outer blade teeth are angled and slightly deeper intentionally to cut a crisp clean edge and bottom with minimal tearout. The minimal bottom corner groove produced by the outer blade teeth is barely noticeable and not a concern for me. Another positive for me was the full chipper blade design. I was down to this set or the similarly priced set from Freud. I had read a few reviews that indicated the partial chipper blades in the Fred set were not so easy to align and hold in place when installing on the arbor. That was a key factor in my choice of the Oshlun set. I have to say that even with the full chipper blades, aligning multiple blades for wider cuts can be tedious, especially if you need to use a few shims. I am very glad I went with the Oshlun in that regard because I understand now how much more difficult it would likely be with partial blades. Overall I am 100% happy with my purchase and I highly recommend to anyone considering.
