MICROJIG Unveils the MATCHFIT Dado Stop
Cutting-edge addition to the MATCHFIT System creates precise dado cuts

The MATCHFITâ„¢ Dado Stopâ„¢. An innovative, new accessory to the MATCHFIT Dovetail Clamp System, the MATCHFIT Dado Stop makes crosscutting safer and takes the guesswork out of creating precise dado cuts.

Innovative Design
The MATCHFIT Dado Stop has a unique design that makes creating tight-fitting joinery simple and easy.  Using the Dado Stop is simple with a three step process, woodworkers can cut cross dados with absolute precision for half laps, inlays and other tricky joinery without measuring, marking or test cuts because the actual stock that is going to go into the groove is used to gauge the cut width. By accounting for the thickness of the material plus the blade kerf, the Dado Stop makes it simple and easy to set the width of the dado cut, ensuring a perfectly matched fit.

A cinch to use, the MATCHFIT Dado Stop is secured to a table saw rip fence with a MATCHFIT Dovetail Clamp. Then the width of the dado cut is set in a simple three step process:

Step 1: set the kerf;
Step 2: set the dado;
Step 3: cut the dado.

Versatility
The MATCHFIT Dado Stop not only allows for cutting very accurate cross dados, it can also be used for calibrating the rip fence scale. As the fixed center leg on the Dado Stop is exactly three inches long, the rip fence can be set so that the fixed leg of the Dado Stop is just touching the teeth of the blade, and then the rip fence scale can be calibrated to exactly three inches, making cross-cutting with this setup amazingly accurate. And using the Dado Stop as a crosscut stop when cutting with a miter gauge virtually eliminates the risk of kickback as off-cut parts will not get caught between the rip fence and the saw blade.

“Creating tight-fitting dados has always been a time-consuming chore involving multiple test cuts to get the dado width exactly where I needed it,” commented Ralph Bagnall, Technical Specialist for MICROJIG. “Now with the MATCHFIT Dado Stop, the guesswork is eliminated and I can make the exact cut I need quickly and accurately every time.”
