- Learn to stack circular saw blades to remove more material quickly, safely, and cheaply.
Tommy and his cousin, Murphy, teach you how to combine 2 circular saw blades to achieve a wider channel with each pass of the saw to give your circular saw the ability to be used occasionally as a dado maker.

I has thinking about that for a time.
Time to start working smart and cheap 💪👍👍🍻
👏👏👏Wooow... Pretty dang clever... Love love love the money saving hacks... Excellent job, yet again. 👏👏👏
Thank you Dawna!!! ❤
“My hands have gloves on them already” lol
Glad you appreciate the humor!
Super cool!
Great video man! Thanks for teaching me something new and making me laugh.
You're welcome.
Much more to come, brother!
I use magnetic business cards/ calendars as spacers. Cut them into circles with an inner cut out slightly larger than the blades hole. Makes it easier to increase or decrease the cut width.
I was thinking of using this general idea for a wood chipper. Wish me luck!
No way, is that a lefty circular saw?! Or am I seeing things 😂
There is only one way to do everything, it's unsafe and you should never do this...I also object to being called old and crotchety. LOL. Love the fact you know you are going to bring out the trolls. If anyone feels you need a disclaimer on your videos, then they should put one on their comments like " Don't read this comment unless you believe that no one else but me is entitled to an opinion." Great video.
I sure appreciate the Pat on the back Doc! I love the way you can put a positive and funny spin on things. Thanks for making me laugh!
🤟😆 muito divertido ! mas acima de tudo uma otima ideia ! obrigado por compartilhar !
Fun fact: safety helmet does not save your fingers from DIY dado misbehavior.
I want to do this to my construction table saw
Can I Just Mount two blades together without anything between them? On my Saw if I put something between the two blades the D washer will not engage on to the D shape shaft, the chef barely sticks through the thickness of just two blades together and also that would be the exact thickness I would want to cut out of space between the boards on my deck.
I think you could try this but I see two potential problems: 1) the blades will likely shift with nothing to keep them from sliding. The thin cushioned tape helps prevent the blades from sliding 2) the carbide teeth are thicker than the rest of the blade, which means that if the blades shift and slide, the carbide teeth will be bumping and grinding one another.
This whole set up is sketchy and I don't recommend making it more sketchy. Be careful!
Yes I think you're right. I was thinking of putting a thin double-sided tape between the two blades to keep them from slipping. I like to know why he knocks out the center of the blade. On my saw if I do that there's nothing that's going to hold it in the center. Thanks for your response.
I have a circular saw... I want to make dados for shelves... Pretty obvious how to do it... Wait, I better check You Tube... Always check You Tube... Thanks AFH
Thanks Will! Glad I could help.
Would you not use say a 24 tooth for chip removal? Then again, I suppose that the cut is shallow enough it's not an issue. Still a bit worried about kickbacks if the shim is not flat. Have you had any practical issues doing this long term?
Hi there,
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I have been on a break from this channel.
This isn't something I would do on a regular basis.
This is for a craftsman who wants to take a shortcut to avoid buying a set of dado blades.
If I needed to make a lot of these I would use different and more appropriate equipment, like a large table saw with dado blades or a table router.
I currently don't have a large shop so I am always coming up with ideas like this to get by until I do.
Thanks for the question! Sorry for the slow response.
I will be back to making videos soon.
@@AMERICASFUNNIESTHANDYMAN I was just curious to see if this hasn't given you any issues. I mean a worm drive can definitely handle the blades that's for sure.
Plunge router and straight edge, would be perfect for this application. I like the video!
Thank you Joshua! This is but one method to creating dados. There are many paths to the same solution.
I’m cutting the gap between my old deck boards so that it’s bigger. During the winter I hear a pop noise and assume it could be ice stuck between them that might not be draining off when it melts. My bedroom is about 20 feet away from the deck and it sounds like someone has a staple gun next to my ear when it goes off.
Those moisture traps can cause major damage imwith freezing and thawing.
I am amazed how many people put deck boards down so tight against each other, it's not a long term installation.
I wonder if you could use rubber sheets typically used in plumbing? With epoxy or construction glue?
Yes sir, anything that is strong and a little flexible!
Funny! Can I use this hack to widen the gaps between the boards on my deck?
I have thought the same thing, but never had the occasion to try it. That's a heavier application with deeper cuts, but it would probably work.
@@AMERICASFUNNIESTHANDYMAN thanks!
How long does it take to make another couple of cuts with a single blade. And again, a dado blade on a skill saw is insane.
Hi T. M.! I appreciate you taking moment to comment! It takes about 1.5 to 2 times more passes per dado with a single blade. I really like how much material I can remove with a single pass.
tighten your edit, and your followers will come. trust me.
Thanks Gee Willickers! I will keep em coming!
Was that a fart at 7:15?
Hahahaha 😁👍
I am a child.
🤣
By the time you did this you could have made 100 single passes and cleaned up the leftovers.
Yeah for 8 or 10 feet, but in my case I've got about 2200 lineal feet to make 2x12s into t&g for a cedar sauna. So for me that extra 10 minutes at the start won't hurt a bit.
I am sorry that I missed these comments.
It's a time saver if you have a lot of the same cuts to make AND your comfortable with a straight edge
my opinion is that it's not trustworthy. soft sticky backed carpet tape or whatever was used doesn't seem safe to me. i'd imagine the blades should be separated by a solid spacer. so they can never come in contact with each other. the teeth should be staggered and locked into position. the way it's done in this video i just can't see how that can be. carbide tipped attachments shouldn't come in contact with other carbide tipped. not even in storage. all my router bits can never come in contact with each other.
A dado is not a rabbet! A dado is a trough in a piece of wood, a rabbet is a notch in the edge of a piece of wood with an open side. Using a skill saw with a dado blade is insane.
It's actually not insane at all. I clearly demonstrate that fact in the video. If it's not for you, that's okay. I happen to use my worm drive skil a lot so it is what I am comfortable with.
I had a boss for years that used dado and rabbet interchangeably as if they were the same thing, which they are not, but some people think so. I probably could have explained that in the video.
@@AMERICASFUNNIESTHANDYMAN You are free to do as you choose, but to instruct possible first time users or neophytes to put a stack on a skill saw is irresponsible, in my opinion. Wielding a spinning blade with that much more weight, not to mention cutting potential is dangerous. I used to run a framing crew and newbies can be terrifying when you see the idiotic things that they do. At the very least give a caveat not to do this unless people are very comfortable with their saw. You repeatedly say how much you use yours and so have much more skill than a novice. Please, be responsible. A torn up thigh or a severed finger is a terrible way to learn. I say this without acrimony or snark. I am merely concerned for the inexperienced user!
I appreciate your concern, however, it is a safe method if done with a saw that has a strong motor, like the worm drive. Both blades are locked in place without any moving or adjustable parts. It's basically just making a wider cutting area. There is no difference in how the saw handles. The method is safe and efficient, AND, can save you a ton of money if you're working with materials that may have random hidden screws or nails.
@@tmrmilano Of course it's not "safe". It's a razor sharp piece of steel spinning at 7,000 rpm. Shoot, it's almost as unsafe as driving a car or overeating. Now those 2 habits are deadly.' But seriously, I can't see how two blades are any more dangerous than one.
