    Thanks

    Not sure I would be trying to use a dado stack on a portable table saw. They are a bit light and under powered.

    These blades are for saws that can not take a full dado stack.

    You need to take a few passes but its likely not going to take longer than setting up stacked blades will. Sell on the dado stack keep your saw and keep the change.
