I have built a micro adjustable box joint jig. The problem is I don't have a true flat bottom dado cutter...and I cant afford one right now. I had the idea of using two 10" flat top rip blades and shimming them out to 1/4". I was wondering if anyone has done this or is it feasible. I could use my router but I'm not sure if it is powerful enough (1 3/4 hp)...and also worry about the tear out. I could use some advise if any of you are willing to share. Thanks. Lynn
