In those 3 weeks I've done nothing but watch woodworking videos (thinking I'll start as a new hobby, transitioning my trim work skills). Now I know what dados are, etc.
I figured I can just cut dados with a router, and I wouldn't want to swap out the stack in the table saw all the time, but then I got to thinking that dados using the fence on a table saw would be much more precise than "freehanding" with a router.
Thoughts?
Table saw is not the only way to make a dado.

That's a long time to wait.
Anybody know if it's easy to cancel?
I tried an order with my Freedom and all it did was charge $1 for authorization at time of order.
If you have a Citi Dividend card, use that as it will be 5% for Q3 when this ships.

I love Bourbon Moth on YT. He has videos where he cuts dados with his regular blade because he says he is lazy. My saw can take a dado stack, but the few times I have cut a dado or rabbet type joint, I just make multiple passes because I don't see a need for a dado stack. I don't do projects enough and only a slim fraction of all cuts I make would be dados.
As someone else mentioned to you, a router with a dado bit would work just as well. Lowes has a Kobalt router + table for $169 that hits I think $129 a few times per year. Next time might be Black Friday. It has great reviews and the table is apparently a bargain for the features you get - metal fence that can be adjusted independently so it could be used as a jointer. My wife just told me "no more tools until we build garage storage", which will be a while since I'm not spending a used car in lumber for it. Otherwise, I want to get said router/table combo. I also consider the Ryobi cordless since I am attached to that battery platform.
I bought a vintage Delta Commercial saw at an auction years ago with a 90* cap of 3-5/8". We can get a clean, straight rip through 3-1/2" lumber and cut it as thin as 3/8" without issues and without having to flip and resaw every cut.
If you have a router, that can handle most dado needs (I personally much prefer my router for this kind of thing). The increased rip capacity on this one is definitely nice, but need for it is also somewhat specialized. As long as you have a saw that can do 24"+, you can rip a 4'x8' sheet of plywood or OSB, and that is by far the biggest requirement for most people. The cutting depth is an interesting one, 3-1/8"/2-1/4" for the 10" versus 2-9/16"/1-3/4" for the 8-1/4" saw (at 90/45 degrees). It really comes down to what you're cutting on the table saw and how often you need that extra ~1/2" of cutting depth. In my own experience, the answer has been "practically never". If you're doing something where that's needed, however, then it becomes a critical factor.
Side note, if you are doing a lot of work with 4'x8' sheets, it's worth either looking at a full-sized cabinet saw, a track saw, or building yourself some infeed/outfeed tables/extensions/etc. That goes for any portable table saw.

I'd like to build some larger pieces like media consoles and wonder if anyone has had experiences cutting harder woods with this.
