May I put two or more 10 inch table saw blades on my delta contractor saw safely? Would this harm the motor? Is this some kind of safety hazard? The reason I want to do this is to dado plywood crossgrain. My present dado blade is dull and it splinters the plywood. I thought I could space the blades so the teeth don’t touch and chisel out the remainder. Any thoughts?

Don't do it. Buy a router.
You not only can I do it all the time for cutting tenons, put two blades spaced to the thickness you want the tenon and cut the cheeks in one pass. This also ensures all tenon for that project are the same thickness.

Ditto on Scot's post. Old CD ROMs make excellent spacers.John O'Connell - JKO Handcrafted Woodworking

Good suggestion about the CD's. I knew there was value in the AOL mailings.
