Hi all,
I got an entry level dado stack given I am doing lots of drawer with the lock rabbet. I have some challenges with the following and could use some tips.
1) Installing the dado stack is fairly time consuming. Aligning the teeth isn't easy because when I tighten the nut on the arbor, some blades move. How can I keep every blade fixed relative to each other while tightening the whole thing? And it gets more tricky as we increase the dado width with more chipper blades.
2) While cutting, I noticed the blades shift. The teeth are no longer aligned as originally. Having to move the fence to readjust the blades is defeating the purpose of using this setup for repeatable cuts. Would adding a second nut to the arbor help?
Are these general problems or poor design of my cheap dado stack https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SZWOINU
Many thanks
