This is brilliant for making accurate cuts. The guide clamps onto your sheet material and you can cut a perfectly straight line.One thing I didn't realise is that there is a soft rubber edge to the guide. When you make your first cut, it cuts along the rubber. This is intentional as it calibrates the edge but it feels wrong when you do it! Just remember to make a trial cut first so you get the edge right and then you are ready to make accurate cuts.The only quibble with this is that sometimes you need both halves but for shorter cuts you just need one of them, but it's a hassle clamping the two halves together and then detaching them again. Ideally you would have a long 2.8m guide and a separate 1.4m guide so you wouldn't need to do this.

I have the same brand track saw and bought these to cut full panels.I know it feels like a lot of money and it is, but my view is that it is well worth it.The quality and accuracy I get with these I could not match otherwise.They are solid and allow you to cut straight for 2500mm (you need to leave the first 30cm or so free to put the plunge saw)You get also two clamps very usefull and solid, as well as two sliders that go underneath to joing the two 1400mm together. Obviously to join the tracks use a long spirit level or something else to make sure you get them right. It's very easy once you try a few times.I had to gently file the shap corners of the beginning and end of tracks before using them, to ease the process of getting the plunge saw in and out but that took two minutes it's no big deal.

I purchased this as an addition to the set i bought a few weeks earlier. I need to to cut long lengths of kitchen worktop however the ones had were to small. this product worked very well and very accurate for the price. only downside was the claps that connected it down to the top. They bent very easily when tightening. Bag that it came in was good for storing.

A really good starter rail. I bought this with the evolutions rail/circular saw to cut some cabinet fronts and, with an 80 tooth blade they have come out brilliantly

After a lot of research on compatibility with my Festool TS55 I decided that as I needed to cut sheets, the occasional door and bit of cabinet work and without any secondhand rails about, I concluded that two 1400mm rails were the way forward.As a keen diyer I couldn’t justify the cost of Festool rails which would set me back around £185 for the rails alone.These rails are a bargain - no others come close to rails, clamps and bag for this sort of money.If I want to customise a little I will eventually replace the clamps for quick clamps and the various strips for Makita or Festool, as there isn’t a huge difference in cost for the consumables.I have seen the reviews mention the poor quality of the clamps but any fool knows you should always have a sacrificial packer between any metal clamp and a finished workpiece. Even the softer faces clamps can cause denting or damage, so the clamps are perfectly useable and if I get fed up with them I will upgrade for better ones when the wife is not looking.

Easy to set up just got to be careful not to over tighten the grub screws or they will push through the track

Excellent product and service

Out of the box, one of the plastic strips designed for smooth riding of the saw base was partially detached and there was no hex wrench/allen key for tightening the extension jointing strips. Then I found that neither of my Makita saws fitted the track, nor did my Bosch, nor my Hitachi ..... you'd think, from the advertising blurb that this would be a given - but no.However, what I wanted was an aluminium straight edge at a reasonable price and this is what I got with this tool. All I needed to do was modify it to work with one of my saws - and I selected the big Bosch as my tracksaw of choice.Securing the detached low-friction band was a simple matter of applying a hot air gun to soften the adhesive and adding a little of my own. The bigger problem was in making the business edge of the track line up with my saw. Fortunately, I knew I could cut aluminium accurately the same as a piece of wood, so setting up the Bosch saw with the track securely bolted up and clamped tightly, I carefully set the saw to a 1/4" cut and SLOWLY ran it the full length of the track wearing protective goggles and gloves. The aluminium track cut perfectly cleanly and the result was a perfectly aligned working edge matched to the cut of that saw and a gentle de-burring job with some 600 wet-&-dry, after cutting, gave me a polished finish that wouldn't damage my workpieces.The track now works perfectly - but would I buy it again? Not if I could find one that fitted my saws out of the box, no. But it now works and works well.

Helps when breaking down a full sheet of plywood. Also, use one of these tracks for the width of the plywood instead of the supplied track that came with the saw (no joints to get hung up on).

Muy buen riel y se pueden comprar tramos para agrandarlo.
