You surprise me that you could even fit a dado blade in a table saw thats in circulation in Ireland.
The EU I believe wont issue a CE certificate for a saw with long arbours these days.
I have heard of a British firm that imports a saw from USA I think its called an Excalibur or something like that.woody U.K.

A jig that works for finger joints with a router will work without much modification on a table saw with a dado blade. Just do a search on 'Box Joint Jig' and/or 'Finger Joint Jig' in Google & you will find a heap of both free & pay-for plans - and the pay plans are usually no better than the free ones.
Freud also make a specialised set of saw blades for making finger joints - put the blades together so the teeth mesh & you get a 1/4"(6.35mm) slot, put the blades together the other way round & you get a 3/8"(~9.5mm) slot.
