the cut could not have come out very good



You want cheap or quality? You want "close enough" or professional cuts
and fit? The corners won't be as square because of the way it cuts.

Actually the sides of the dado are square to the surface of the material
but the bottom is rounded so it is not square to the sides of the dado.

I have used a wobble dado many times.

It is not harmful to the saw and it runs very smoothly.

From there, the cuts suck. The wobble dado sets cut rounded bottom
dados. If you are using construction grade lumber and need to cut dados
the wobble dado will suffice for rough work.

Don't use if for furniture.
