Does anybody know if this Dado Blade would fit the BT3100 ? Any other references ?

You'll do much better with a stacked dado rather than this adjustable type "wobble" dado you illustrated. You may want to read the BT3 FAQ questions on dadoes. The FAQ is linked below my sig line.

Probably will fit but I hate those wobbly dado cutters
I prefer a simple stacked unit

Put in the blades add the cutters and modify with paper or cardboard; done deal. You get a flat bottom smooth sides and no vibration

The wobble units give you a round bottom and tear out and are "wobbly"

I had one and used it for several years on a RAS and it served me well in that application. When I got the BT3100, I got rid of it in favor of a Freud stacked blade. I get nice clean, flat bottomed dados.

I was also just a little concerned about the rated speed (RPM) of the Sears dado blade -- its just at the stated speed of the BT3100 and I prefer that the blade be rated at a higher speed than the saw.

Good luck!

"Wobble" and "Table Saw" should not be spoken in the same sentence. Move along now, nothing to see here folks!

I tried an 8" 'wobble' dado from sears my dad uses and it would not fit the 21829 saw.
I picked up an Oldham 6" stack dado for about $39 at our local box store. It says it is rated for 10,000 RPM and all the cuts I have made so far have been outstanding.
