A good dado blade for the Bosch 4100-09 ??
270187
I've got the Diablo Freud 8" stacked set that can do up to 7/8 with all the shims and spacers. I've used it up to 13/16. It's not the fanciest / best out there, (I think I paid $99 at HD), but it seems to work well. It's my firsts dado set so I don't have anything to compare it to, but the three projects I've worked on so far have come out great.

I am not the ultimate expert on saw and blades but I would not recommend buying 10" stack dado for small table saw. I use it on delta unisaw which is 220v and has more powerful motor. On my saw it works very smooth and does a great job. I have a Bosch table saw similar to your dewalt and I would not use dado larger than 8" and I would not try to cut too deep in one go.

It does not accept a dado blade nor do they offer a table insert to accommodate a dado blade. The model that does accept a dado is the 744. This information can be confirmed at dewalt.com.

I have never used a dado. I would think it would work. I would point out that the saw works well but would question it for real fine work and cabinet making.

Probably not a good idea. The way the carbide cutters are configured would not accommodate chippers that would normally go with a dado set. I have a Freud dado set and they fit specifically for those outside blades. I would not attempt using them with the box cutter blades.

You're apparently looking for an industrial laser, if you really mean "scalpel". If you mean craft work, a drill and a Bosch jisaw with a 32TPI metal blade would be my choice. I have used mine several times to modify sheet steel window regulators in cars, and the bi-metal blades are at least an order of magnitude less expensive than what you would spend with the Fein tool. You could make replacement blades yourself from Fein stubs and Sawzall blade segments using a welder as someone suggested, but that seems like needless work. I like Bosch jigsaws, and Metabo and Milwaukee make decent jigsaws too, but I avoid DeWalt based on experience. You're apparently looking for an industrial laser, if you really mean "scalpel".

Well, sure! You can use it for any blade, really. The only problem with using it for dado blades is the different widths. So you might want to get a couple to deal with that.

Bosch makes very good t-shank blades. Which blades you want depends on what you're using it for. Metal blades are very different than wood blades. Each package of blades shows the purpose for which they are designed. They sell assorted sets too.

I'm not a seasoned wood worker by no means. But, since using the Freud sd208 it seems to make good clean cuts with no grooves on the bottom of the cut. Had no hangups on the saw arbor and was able to use the shims with ease. Would recommend this Dado blade to anyone.

Bosch has an inexpensive adapter to use their blades on the Fein. Imperial also makes a universal blade that will fit Fein. Together, this gives you a lot of choices.Both Bosch and Imperial are quality blades.

No. Only the 10" blade cartridge comes with the saw. The 8" dado cartridge is extra and is more expensive. (about $90) If you put the dado set in the machine, it will not run unless you also put in the proper cartridge.

You will have to remove the standard insert, the dado blade 'stack' will be too wide. If you want to use an insert it will have to vary for each Dado width you set up. I have never seen any advertisement for inserts of varying widths? Depending on the width of the material you wish to dado you can use your saw without one or make one from a suitable thickness material.

Yes, but you may have to purchase another blade guard plate, as the dado blade is much wider. I bought one from Amazon and I also made one out of a hard wood plank.

I am not sure why you would ask this question unless you have a DW745 and need a dado insert for it, or have a dado insert and need a saw to put it in. My advise is if you have a DW745 saw make your own insert. It will fit better for your dado than a store bought one. The ones they sell are "fits all" situations and has too much gap around then for the narrower dadoes. The easiest way is to cut one out on a band saw or your table saw and if you have a router use the one that came with your saw for a pattern and rout around it. If you don't have a router, you can use a sander to shape the outside. If it needs a small rabbit around the edge use your table saw to cut that. Once the outside fits and it is flush with the table, put the dado set on the saw and crank it all the way down. Put your insert in and weight it ,clamp it down any way out of the way of the blade, and turn on the saw and slowly crank it up the height you want to dado. It will cut a zero clearance insert for you that is better than a manufactured one.

The dado cartridge does not. You need to get that and your own dado set separately. It does come with a 10" blade (a pretty good one) and cartridge, but I ordered an extra cartridge so I could get back to work fast if it ever triggered.

I cannot answer that question. I received the one I had ordered and found it a product I was unwilling to have or use. The blades and chippers have a tendency to collide and bind on one another. I did not like what I saw. I in turn purchased the Diablo Dado set. It is an awesome tool. the parts fit together very nicely and with the shims and shimming instructions you can almost get a perfect dado width the first time.

I'm not sure. I own a dw744x table saw. try calling dewalt direct. 1 800-4-DEWALT. I can say its a great dado blade. I have used it often and have been very satisfied with the results. I recommend getting the zero clearance dado throat plate. less tear out...
