    Tony, do a search of your saw doctors in you area or MIK International in Adelaide.

    They are pretty helpful and If they haven't got it they will point you in the right direction.

    Cheers

    Default CMT Dado blades

    Hi Tony
    I recently purchased a HB10 after the Triton era which served me well. I hear from Carbatec that they are nervous about Dado blades and yet I am not sure why? In your experince are they really that dangerous? They seem a great time saver for tenons and grooving.
    Cheers

    That's a long time between drinks. Have a look at the dates, Paul.

    I have a set and I think they are great provided that you make sure that they are clamped on properly and normal safety precautions are taken.

    On my saw (TSC10HB) I can only safely use dado blades up to about 16mm but it is easy enough to do 2 passes to get a wider dado.Just move the fence slightly.

    Hopes that helps.


    Peter.

    Default Dado Blades

    Hi Peter
    Yes, I realised after I sent the message that the posting was old. That is good to know as I have a new HB10 as well. Will enquire at Carbatec.

    Paul if you've got a new TSC10HB the following links might be of interest. First one is a collection of questions and answers and my post on jigs .
