Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Freud dado sets are built to last through many years of sharpening and use. However, accidents like dropping a chipper do happen and Freud offers a full range of replacement parts. All outside blades and chippers are made to the same exacting standards or quality as the original set. For wider cuts Freud's Precision Shim Set and additional chippers are available. Application: Use on all table saws and radial arm saws for cutting slots, grooves, dadoes, and rabbets in softwood, or hardwood.

how to identify your shims March 2, 2005 T. L Lansberry 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The shims are exactly what you would expect. I used a metal marking permanent marker (Sharpie Metal) to write each shim's thickness right onto the shim. Once that's done you are good to go and never have to measure again.
Well made , exactly what I would expect from Freud. July 15, 2000 B. Johnson (Seattle , WA) 33 out of 33 found this review helpful
The Freud shim set is precise, and is anodized with a dark material to prevent corrosion. There are four .004, two .008 two .012 and two .020 shims in the package. They seem flat and true. The only problem I have with this set is that they all look the same. Can you tell the difference between .008 and .012? I can.... with a micrometer. If you don't have one, you will have trouble telling the shims apart. There are some other sets that use color coding. These might be easier for some people to use. I like the fact that there are extra shims of each thickness (particularly the .004), since they could be damaged easily.

No trouble with warping as some customers reported earlier. I'm a bit of a novice, but have done other projects with more crude equipment. Much easier working witth this sort of precision equipment.
Cupped and rusted May 25, 2006 Joe (Southern NH USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Received in a perfectly clean, brand new package. Three shims had rust spots the size of dimes. Both .020 shims were cupped as if they just came off a roller. This is Freud quality?
