I just pick up a dado set of delta 35-7670 which has two 24 teeth 8" 5/8" arbor but the shimm where do i place them when using the chipper and othe blades
it has a chart on the chippers and the other blades but not on the shimms which are 0.005" by 4, 0.010" by 4 and 0.020" by 4 where and when do you use the right shimms with the right blades and chippers too
The shims are placed between the blades and chippers in a stack. they are used to make very small adjustments to the final dado width... So usually you set up your dado set for a specific width of cut according to your blade chart, then make a test cut... If you need to widen the cut very slightly, add some shims in between the blades as required to get a good fit on whatever material you are joining or putting into the dado etc.
Hope that makes sense!
