- What widths can the SD508 cut?
- The stack combines two outer blades with six chippers and metal shims. That covers a range from a narrow groove up to roughly 13/16 inch, depending on the shims used.
- Will it fit my table saw?
- It uses a 5/8-inch arbor, which fits most US table saws. Your saw needs a long enough arbor and the power to spin an 8-inch stack, plus a dado insert for the throat plate.
- Is it good for plywood?
- Yes. Owners report clean shoulders and little tear-out in plywood, which is where cheaper stacked sets often struggle.
- How does it compare with a wobble dado blade?
- A stacked set like the SD508 gives flat bottoms and cleaner shoulders than a wobble blade. The trade-off is more weight and slower width changes.
- What comes in the box?
- Two outer blades, six chippers, a set of metal shims and a fitted plastic storage case.
- Do I need a special throat plate?
- Yes. An 8-inch dado stack needs a dado throat plate or insert with a wide opening. A standard kerf insert will not clear the stack.
