Is this blade (s) Negative, or Positive blade hook? I will be using this to cross-cut dado's with a Radial Arm Saw, hence i need to know the hook angle.

The blades have a positive hook. I have used it for cross cutting dado on my Sears radial arm saw and it works very well with perfect flat-bottomed slots. It is a bit "grabby", so I use it by starting the saw when it is pulled all the way towards me and then cutting on a push stroke. When cutting on a pull stroke you have to be very careful on the feed rate as it will stall the motor.

I didn't list it but the tip is rounded. So I guess it is a Usuba. Call it what you want the picture is the actual saw.

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 expert enough to make a recommendation. I did install a fine tooth blade in our miter saw since we do a lot of end and angle cuts of furniture trim.Anyway, we don't have a radial arm saw. Have you tried the Craftsman web site?

This will not fit, the blades are too big. I agree with the other answer here - you shouldn't use a dado blade on a circular saw. http://forums.finewoodworking.com/fine-woodworking-knots/power-tools-and-machinery/dado-blade-circular-saw

An original replacement plate lists the 744 and the 745. I have a 745 and later purchased a dado set. I found that the arbor on the 745 is short and would not accommodate any more than 3/8" blades and still have some thread showing after installing the nut. Dewalt says the 745 is not approved for dado use And won't tell you what will fit it. Charlie is right, make your own if you can, or as someone commented in another question, buy a replacement plate and cut out the 3/8 dimension.

I believe it is, but haven't needed to use my dado on it yet. I know there is a blade base plate for the saw which allows a dado blade to be installed. I will have to go home tonight and try it out

The tang of the blade goes about 1/2 into the handle, and a Allen screw goes through the hilt into the tang. I have read some say the compass is no good, but mine points in same direction as my Cammenga and Vitorinox. I put three coats of Flex Seal on the metal handle, it makes for a better feel. I think it is a pretty good knife (or mine is) Hope this helps.

HiThe saw is opposite of most saws you will be using your right hand illooking at the right to make a cut your base plate will be on the right again it is the opposite of most, still evaluating this need more time to give you an honest answer if it's better or not for a right handed person. My other opinion about the quality in design of the saw it is one of the best ones I have used, the electric brake, the heavy duty base and the LED all makes it an excellent choice.

Not sure about the 744 - I have the 7490/7491 (not sure exactly which) and I found the same problem as Samual B. The right side of the opening is lined up with where the blade starts, and the opening for dado blades goes in the opposite direction - essentially non-usable as a dado throat plate!

Return it and get another... this should never be an issue. I just had an alignment issue on the one I ordered on Amazon. Had to RMA it.Also, make sure to never crimp when the wires aren't passed through the tool properly and straight, this will cause the blade to get bent or dull prematurely. ...I'm no longer ordering these on amazon, I haven't had good luck with quality from the ones received on here, now getting from approved platinum tools dealers and having much better luck.

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.

each blade is 1/8 thick, as are most table saw blades anyway. When you stack the dado with out a shim it will give you a rough 1/4 so I would just use your single blade and make two passes adjusting your fence.

I think Mr. Hernandez meant the black clamp lever in the back of the saw. I found the answer we needed before he posted by reading all of the comments from other users. The trick was that you to turn the clamp lever in the reverse direction (counter-clockwise) than normal. I kept telling my husband to try counter-clockwise but he insisted that one ALWAYS tightens clamps or screws clockwise. Not this time. By the way, he loves the saw. Good luck.

I use mine with a Freud Dado set every week or so. You have to read the instructions carefully and reverse the arbor washers for the larger sizes I think I remember seeing that one should not use this saw with one of those adjustable "dial in a width" sets.

Hi jack,To tell the truth I'm bad on guessing edge angles but it's a wide angle similar to an axe.The BOB can carve and chop wonderfully but I don't find it to be a hunting blade

I would not purchase this product The Blades were not lined up correct at Factory I sent two Units Back and got a full refund.The arbor is not long enough to get a full dado set on it. You can Contact a Rockwell Tech and they will advise
