3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty much works as expected..., August 8, 2003

This review is from: DELTA 35-530 6-Inch Carbide Tipped Dado Set with Anti-Kickback Design (Tools & Home Improvement)

This set works well for me. The arbor hole for the right-side blade was a bit tight to fit over the non-treaded portion of my saw's arbor at first, but after a few installations/removals the hole has opened up enough to ease installation. Also, same problem with the chippers; the non-threaded portion of my arbor extends just past the inner face of the right-side blade. Only one of the chippers would fit over this shoulder. I figured out what was wrong, I simply marked that chipper and use it in the same position every time. Other than that, this set works as expected. The smaller size is more suitable for smaller, less powerful saws. I've used this set to cut dados in pine, MDF, oak and cherry with no problems exept for when I accidently mounted one of the chipper backwards. As with any stack dado set, you will probably need to use shims between the chippers to make dados of exact size. This set doesn't include any, but if it did I would give it another star. I like the Veritas shims, since they are color coded for thickness and can be inserted between blades without having to completdly remove the outer blades first.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rough cut, October 4, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: DELTA 35-530 6-Inch Carbide Tipped Dado Set with Anti-Kickback Design (Tools & Home Improvement)

This Dado set by Delta produces rough cuts and edges with significant bat wings (.005"-.010" deep). I also had problems with mounting the blades on the arbor (center hole too small). The set is only suitable for general carpentry.
