Freud 8" Super Dado Set - $125

Freud SD508 8" Super Dado Set — a premium stacked dado system engineered for clean, precise grooves in cabinetmaking, shelving, and general woodworking. Built for consistency and long life, this set elevates your dados beyond standard cuts with two sharp blades, a full slate of chippers, and a shim kit to dial in exact widths.

What’s in the box:

• 2 blades — the core of the stack for strong, accurate cuts
• 6 chippers — provide a wide range of widths for custom joinery
• Shim set — precise spacers to fine-tune your dado-to-surface fit

Why the SD508 stands out:

• Versatile, scalable widths - stack the blades, add chippers, and use the included shims to achieve a broad spectrum of dado sizes without changing blades mid-project.
• Clean, repeatable cuts - designed for smooth bottom surfaces and minimal tear-out in both hardwoods and softwoods, improving fit and finish on shelves, cabinet backs, and partitions.
• Durable, long-lasting teeth - built with Freud’s precision carbide tooling to resist wear and maintain edge integrity through many cuts.
• Time-saving setup - quick alignment and stable stacking reduce setup time, so you spend more time building rather than adjusting.
• 8" compatibility - specifically configured for 8" dado applications in common woodworking setups, making it a reliable choice for mid- to large-scale projects.
