I took the shot from
above to show the shoulders left by the wobble dado.

In another reply, you said you were going to reduce the width of the dado.
Good idea. If you had it set to way beyond the 1/4" you need, reducing it
to a hair over 1/4" will markedly reduce the curve.

This may be misguided; wobble-dado blades are sharpened at the factory in
a manner that will be a bad match for either extreme (wide or narrow)
of the width setting. There IS likely a setting at which the wobble-blade cuts
a flat bottom.

For my (Sears Craftsman 720.3261) blade, the instruction sheet indicates
that width is 3/4" (0.750 inches).


Regardless of how a wobble blade is sharpened at the factory or where
ever, if it wobbles/cuts wider than the width of the teeth on the blade,
it will not produce a flat bottom.

The only setting that the wobble blade will create a flat bottom is when
it is adjusted to not wobble at all.


Actually, the wider the cut the more extreme the cup in the bottom of
the cut.

Sears/Craftaman power tools say a lot of things to sell their product.
Remember the 6.5 hp shop vacs?
