Fits DW744 Portable 10" Table Saw (Rating: 5.00)
Review : This dado DOES fit my portable DW744, although the supplied wrench does not fit the DW744's arbor nut, so I use a socket wrench.

DOESN'T WORK ON ALL SETTINGS!! (Rating: 2.00)
Review : I puchased this blade to replace an old wobble blade. I didn't mine the cheap case it came in as much as when ajusting it to it's full width,it was to wide to fit on my arbor with a nut. After paying this price I expect it to work in all widths. I have a Delta unisaw, so I do not know what saw you would have to have to meet it's full specifications? I returned it.

Very Satisfied (Rating: 4.00)
Review : I bought my dado set at Home Depot (I work there) I had always wanted a good stack dado set, but could not see paying in excess of $150.00 for something I only occassionally use. I am glad that I waited for this set. My current project, a computer desk has made good use of this set. No problems with set ups and the cuts are razor sharp. The only improvement I would suggest is to mark the shims as to the thickness.

Freud 8" Super Dado (Rating: 5.00)
Review : When I first started doing fine wood working about 4 years ago, I bought a dado set for about $50. Well, as you can imagine, you get what you pay for. I had to have a filing shop match the cutters up so I could get close to square cuts. When it was time to move up, I purchased this product and have been extremely pleased with it. I decided to give this set a try as I had purchased a Freud 60 tooth blade and it worked wonderfully, with no chipping on plywood or any of the solid woods I used.

Square cuts right out of the box. Good set of shims that made adjustments easy. The only thing I would like to have seen was the marking of the cutters (i.e. C, D, E etc). Other than that, this is an excellent product.

Razor Sharp Dados (Rating: 5.00)
Review : ... 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.

First time dado user (Rating: 5.00)
Review : I recently purchased a Delta contractors saw with the intention of constructing a set of shelves to place on a table to house my amateur radio equipment. The plan was to cut grooves in the end supports, Oak veneer 3/4" plywood, to receive 8 foot(!) shelves of the same material. Movable intermediate supports prevent shelf sag. I purchased this dado set locally and found some of the same challenges previously posted concerning the shims. I overcame them after a couple of false starts. Testing on scrap stock proved that the dados were smooth, straight and with perfectly a flat bottom. I proceeded to make the cuts on the shelf ends and they came out very well. Certainly these blades are worth the purchase price. I'm a happy camper. I may buy some plastic shims I've seen advertised elsewhere, but they too will slip into the arbor threads, I'm sure. You just have to be careful in the setup.
