I'm looking to get a 3/4" plywood dado bit for some shelves I'm building.

First "modern" plywood is undersized 3/4 is usually about 23/32" instead of a true 3/4". They make undersized plywood bits but plywood varies so much it is better to use a 1/2" bit and make two passes to fit the plywood you actually have. That said the Rockler bits or fine BUT since it is a straight bit that will get a lot of use I would get a Whiteside or Freud, might check the deals forum and see if Holbren's 25% off sale is still on. If you prefer to make just one pass make sure you get a undersized plywood bit for 3/4" plywood.

Moderators, please move this to Classifieds if you wish.

I have a set of 2 Holbren bits for 1/2" and 3/4" ply. The 1/4" bit was never in the box. I bought them from Holbren that way. They had a special sale on them. How does $12 shipped sound?

That's sound fantastic.

The 3/4" was miss marked. It is actually 23/32".
PM me.
