I have not used my table saw in probably 7 years so I can't remember what the hell I was sawing but it ruined the blade. The dado cuts the birch like butter.
do yourself a big favor and attach a 3/4" x 3/8" piece to go in the miter slot so you don't have any issues holding it against the fence. I know it's alluminum but it also is very close to that blade. make that thing into a sled like I did with that allum. I got from you for my big sleds.

I've been developing a method using heat to adjust the weight of my val oil/MS sealed bodies. Still need to get some bugs out.

Got 1/2 an oz off, but I find my equipment needs some work.
