Dado stack for old Ryobi table saw?
Hi,
I have an old Ryobi ETS1526AL Table Saw, basically just a little better than junk but it's what I have and I cannot afford to replace it so.... does anyone know if these can take a dado stack?
TIA

From what I can find out it's got a 5/8" arbor, which is the size of most dado sets. Is there enough shaft length to accommodate a dado stack? Some pictures and measurements should provide the info. needed to properly advise.

With the blade on and holding nut tightened there should be about 19mm of threaded shaft extending outwards from the nut. If you dont have this then there is no space to fit a dado stack. Basically if there is space on the shaft then it can be fitted. You will also need a throat plate to match if it does accept a dado stack.
Regards
John

Hi, Unfortunately I cannot get to the saw atm to check (long story) and have been offered a dado stack. Thus the question.
Cava: In regard to safety, it makes no difference what brand it is re safety. It's a spinning shaft holding blades with a compression nut. The issue with cheap saws is bed material, fences, repeatable cuts etc - not safety.

Safety is absolutely an issue with cheap tools. Low price means cheaper materials and less of them, would you trust a plastic saw base to stop a blade that's come loose as well as a metal base? It's a spinning shaft that's going to have 3 times the mass it normally would. That being said, at 1500W I reckon it's more likely to stall than anything else.
Anyway, judging by the size of the hole in the table, I don't think there's space for a dado stack

Ryobi made a dado stack for this saw, I bought a set from Mcjing a few years ago at the last www show in Adelaide for $15 and have been using it on my Laguna TS Works well .
