New dado insert for my Skil 3410 table saw
I recently wrote an post on making a zero clearance insert plate for my table saw. The main reason that I made that insert was because I could not find a dado insert made for my table saw. I did some more searching and finally found one on eReplacementParts.com. In the description it gave the model number for the part it was replacing. I then took that model number and plugged it into the search on the Skil site and was able to find the OEM part! It did not give a picture and only gave a description of "Dado Insert Kit for 3410 Table Saw". The after market website had a small picture that showed a nut and washer so I was cautiously optimistic that this one would come with one too. It turns out that it did come with a new washer/nut combo for the arbor that is slimmer and I can now install my full dado stack!

Heres the pic from the after market website.
I felt like a kid on Christmas when it finally got here.
That was a pretty big box just to ship this little one but it
got here safe! Out of the box.
No question about it, its made for my table saw!
Here it is with a nut/washer combo and another washer that replaces
the one on the other side of the blade.Heres all my inserts.
This is the zero clearance insert that I made.
Here is the new one installed with a 1/2" dado stack. There is plenty of room
to fit in the whole 13/16" stack!Here is the old washer/nut combo next to the new one.

The New Yankee Workshop workbench build has started!
Ive been watching a lot of episodes of The New Yankee Workshop on YouTube lately and one of my favorites is their woodworking workbench. I found a hardcover copy of the 1st season of NYW book on eBay for a good price. Norm said that the project can be made with 6 - 2x4s so I bought 7. I made one mistake in my cuts and had to redo one 17" board that somehow came out 16.75" and still managed to use only 6 - 2x4s. I am also shooting video on this project so I didnt take as many pictures as I normally would have.
This is the goal for my workbench to look like.
The plan called for 6 - 2x4s so I bought 7.

Its Norm!
This is the goal for my workbench to look like.
My wife got me this dado set for christmas. I cant find anywhere to buy new plates for my table saw so I
am in the process of making one out of hardboard.
The new plate for the dado set is almost done.
The plan called for 6 - 2x4s so I bought 7.
Time to make some cuts.
These are all the pieces cut for the frame of the workbench.
Even with my one screwup this is all I had left for scraps.
These are all the pieces laid out. Rabbits and dados are next!
