Dado blades are not illegal in europe, but you'll have a hard time getting one. Arbors usually are not big enough to hold them either.
the reason for it is, table saws have to stop in a certain time, after they are turned off. so many, if not most, saws have some form of break in it. But since a dado stack weighs so much, if you slam the breaks on them, they can loosen the arbor nut. Since that can get pretty dangerous, you cant get them. So, dado blades technically are allowed, but the rules for stopping the saw make them unuseable.

Dados are not illegal in Europe. There's however required for the blade to stop spinning within a short time. To be able to stop a larger mass blade as a dado you need a better brake that most contractor saws do not have and therefore the arbour is to short to fit a dado. If you however have a bigger cabinett saw or panel saw the arbour are longer and you can fit a dado on them.

Great stuff, Brad. Just a quick tip for the Roberts long driver bit for PH screws: When worn out (usually the tip becomes rounded), I just hit the end with a diamond file or a few passes over 220 W/D sandpaper to square up the bit. It is good to go for many other fasteners, before the tip becomes too short to grab the screw.

12:15 A great way to keep your finish out of the dados for the dividers, would be to apply your finish BEFORE cutting the dados. I like this a lot, and will probably get both plans and combine it all into one big happy organizer.

Thank you for being safe with the tools. There are lots videos of other people. not using safety equipment. It's encouraging to see a creator using safety tools.

[Foodgeek]

Dado stacks are illegal in the EU because they are not CE marked, and they require you to remove the riving knife and the blade guard, which are some of the most important safety features of a table saw :)

I’ve seen a hundred videos on cordless tool storage and they are all just about the same . Finally something cool and different. Nice job!

Eating my lunch and watching my dude work!! I enjoyed it brother.

That was a really slick transition with the plywood sliding at 5:45

[robsmith]

That “pulling board” transition was great.

[jimdevito]

Love the fancy wipe transition while you were pulling the plywood out of the rack! The extra effort is noticed and appreciated!

Brad, your well organized shop has me now redoing my ENTIRE, very cluttered one car garage shop! I had placed bead board on the entire space and nailed woodworking items to see it. Now I am thinking cabinets are the way to go to kept the "cluttered" appearance overwhelming and the dust off the tools! I love your videos and the projects you make! And your editing is superb! Thank you for all you videos you post!

[ObsessiveAboutCats]

I LOVE how you synched the 1/4" dado cuts and the motions of your push blocks with the soundtrack. My OCD appreciates it very very much!

[christianorfali]

It's awesome how you manage to keep your workshop soooo clean. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Brad.

Hi Brad, Just a small correction about Dado Stacks here in the United Kingdom. (Cant speak for the rest of Europe) It is not actually illegal to use Dado Stacks in the United Kingdom at all. "The legal constraint is about spin-down time with a heavy dado blades. The machine must either come to rest quickly on its own, or it must have brakes fitted to it" And as most of the Table Saws sold in the UK do not have brakes fitted as a rule, means we fall foul of the amount of spin-down time that is taken with a heavier blade such as a Dado Stack. Hope this helps Brad, Keep up the great work brother. oh! and please consider coming to Makers Central in Birmingham in May 2022. Would love the

"The other one had four, but we'll add one more, to account for the drawer...." Nice! Spittin' rhymes while building awesome storage. Thank you for that!

[ShinyFeral]

Your sense for functionally-aesthetic organization is amazing!

[jeffeltringham]

That wipe was sick. Well done. Also loved the project.

[allthegearuk]

Dado blades are not illegal in the UK but only available on commercial saws with blade brakes and over head blade guard. This way the blade is never exposed and doesn't spin too long. Most motor arbours are not long enough to accept a dado stack this is how they enforce this rule

[Woodworks]

Good job on the project. I loved the drawer organization! The video edit was awesome too.
