I recently got a T-slot bit(like a keyhole bit only slightly larger)from MLCS. Item #6333. I got it for making T-slots in jigs and fixtures rather than using commercially availiable T-track. When I use it with BJs dado jig (see link) I can only have about 5/8" of shank in the collet. Or the collet will rub on the template guide. Total length of bit is 2", Large diameter at bottom is 3/4" x 1/8". Is this safe?

Thanks, Rusty
