OSHLUN SDS-0630 6-Inch 30 Tooth Stack Dado Set with 5/8-Inch Arbor

Excellent set of blade options and very accurate

I have a US made table saw imported several years ago. It has a 5/8th arbor that is 38mm long and a separate saw plate to accommodate the wider blade. It also has enough horsepower to drive the considerable weight that the full set of these will add to your motor. Don't even think about buying this set if you haven't got something similar. And don't consider fitting them onto a chop saw! The full stack is very heavy and if not comfortably secured could wreak havoc in your workshop. As it is the performance is fantastic. Effortless and crisp clean rabbets and dadoes performed in seconds. The blades are uber sharp and the shims supplied mean you can achieve cuts in tiny increments up to just shy of an inch per pass. Being a US product it is sized in Imperial but you can easily convert to metric (I use a micrometer and just hit the convert button). You need to remove a conventional blade guard assembly but you can retain a riving knife if yours doesn't sit higher than the blade although it serves no purpose here being a fraction of the width of the cut. I don't buy into the idea that these are dangerous - any number of tools in the wrong hands can kill you. Just make sure you are fitting them to the right machine. Highly recommended.

Just bought these so time will tell how good they are, arrived fast highly recommend, thanks seller. Bought these for my Evolution rage 5s, won't be able to use them to there full capacity, but it will do for my jobs. Came in a strong ish box, keep everything tidy. As I have said very heavy watch you don't drop them on your feet.

The 6in set allows my Bosch saw nearly a 1 inch wide by 1 inch deep groove. All I'll ever need. Lovely sharp 90deg corners. Just now I'm setting up a jig with sizes and settings. Hard to imagine how a dado stack could improve on the Oshlun? Bosch have been a bit miserly with my saw arbor length, although there is room for a little more length, might prove restrictive in time. However, that's not Oshlun's fault! If the ultimate width size (the whole stack) is important to you, beware! Lastly, zero detectable vibration. If you need to hog out a very wide deep groove this is the stack for you. It motors!

Well made, having only used single blades before surprised by the stacked weight. Needs a robust motor. My Ryobi RA 2500 copes well. Be aware of the increased 'bite' and allow for it.

Bought this as I've got to make 20 drawers with finger joints out of 6 mm birch ply. just using the two blades without the chippers all the cuts are clean and accurate. Very happy all round.

If you're a UK customer and have UK spec table saw legislation requires that the motor on the saw is braked and stops the blade in a few seconds. For this reason UK saws are deliberately sold with and arbor too short to fit a dado stack. The weight of a dado blade is such that when the brakes come on the blade can have enough momentum to keep spinning and wind itself off the arbor - throwing the blades at the operator. Its poor form at the very least of these to be on sale on amazon with no warning if its even legal to sell them at all. Theres a reason why you don't see them for sale on more reputable retail sites, but due diligence has never been Amazon's strong point.

Value for money

This is my first dado set, so understand I have nothing else to compare it to dado wise, but for the price I couldn't be happier. I wasn't sure how often I would use this set, but I bought an incra ibox jig and wanted a dado stack to go with it. Some of the dado stacks available are frighteningly expensive, this doesn't put me off, I like quality tools, but considering my initial lack of use I was reluctant to spend 100's of $$ for a tool I might use occasionally. I found this Oshlun set with good reviews my only choice being 6" or 8"? I have to send this to Australia and the postage was $25 difference before the cost of the goods, obviously not an issue for some people getting free postage. I also read a few reviews on 6" sets and the consensus was nobody seemed to need the extra cut height the 8" model added. So I purchased the 6" and put it straight to use with the ibox after a few test cuts. Firstly the box everyone complains about.....? It's fine. It's a crappy cardboard box with foam to separate and support the plates. Mine arrived all the way to Australia without so much as a mark on it. Will it outlast the dado stack? Of course not but it's actually usable as a storage device until i make or find something else. Much better than some other packaging this stuff arrives in and none of that terrible unopenable Chinese plastic! I can see this helps keep the price down. First few cuts to test the width and it performed flawlessly. The instructions are clear (easy to follow, no chinglish conversion) and a useful table to tell you which plates to use to achieve the desird thickness. As noted on the amazon ad and instructions, the dado has a small groove on the outside edges of the cut to prevent chip out. This works well, the groove is slightly visible but only if you are looking for it and 2" away from your eyes. The height of the 6" cut may be a concern for some, if you are using this with timber directly on your table saw it would be fine for the DIY/hobbiest work I do, but In this case I used the ibox jig which lifts the workpiece 1/2" or so off the table. So you loose 1/2" cutting capability. This worked for the box joints I was making but could be an issue for some. Over all I am very happy with hone 6" set, I would buy it again but if you don't mind spending a few extra $$ (and get free postage) the 8" set does give a deeper cut should you need the maximum capability. In my limited use, first dado set and higher shipping costs the 6" was a perfect option which gave results exactly what I was looking for. Happy customer!

I am a new wood working, and getting into some of the interesting projects. never used a dado prior to this one, and I honestly did not know what to expect. all of the previous dado's Ive done were made using my router or the single blade table saw. alot of feedback and lot options out there, however I can say, the oshlun blades came in well packaged ( cardboard box), but the blades were organized and separated by a foam like disk with the little washers for spacers. I purchased on the 8" set the cut is clean, and I say clean and not only because I havent tried other sets from other vendors, but watching many youtube videos I can see that the quality of my blades is better . accurate and true. I havent found a need to use the spacers, but I am sure I will at some point. I believe they are priced well, made well, and gave them a 5 stars because they performed flawlessly I am not sponsored by this seller nor any one else. straight shooter all around. I recommend this product.

Muy recomendable y muy barato..lo mejor!!
