Thought about buying one, but instead I bought a metal rail from the bulk metal section of my hardware store and used 2 clamps 🗜 on each end to make cuts. I eventually bought a similar one to your bora at Harbor freight, but The piece of metal was actually better! Lol

Very Good thanks, I had to move and broke my heart needed to sell my table saw off as I just didn't have the space and the remote garage I now rent didn't have power so need a cordless saw so gotta a circular instead, so this gadget clearly is the answer 😎👍
By the way in your description on the distance twix blade and (Tray) edge I believe the word you were looking for was 'Baseplate' 😆👍 Cheers!

Video should be titled “circ saw guide rail” Kind of missing the point in a track saw ….. it keeps pressure down on your material A-swell stopping chip out by using the same concept as a zero clearance on a table saw . I.e blade is right up against the guide no room for blade movement , also can’t get the wobbles on a track ……

Hugely beneficial! i was seriously looking into track saws and shocked at how expensive they are.

can pick up a piece of 1/4 angle iron and 2-3 clamps for the same price and do some pretty long cuts.

The piont of a track saw is its splinter guide and the guide locks the saw into the track, dewalt now have a circular saw the dcs 576n flexvolt cordless with track rebates in its bed, which can be used on a dewalt track but also other cheaper tracks .😃👍👍👍👍

[marcusallenyt]

what a great tool . just got one after eating your video . thanks for taking the time to make it

[zoladkow]

all you need is (surprise surprise) A TRACK 😁

[DeepSnowRider]

why buy when you can just use a 2x4 and 2 clamps?

[reqib]

Only got one complaint this video gonna make me buy another tool😅😂. Thank you great video

[dondavis]

You need to show your cutoff piece that resulted from your quick example of cutting!

[FromMetayou]

I use a piece of flat stock aluminium and two quick clamps at a fraction of your cost for that

[Jesus-Is-Kingx]

you do know Lowes sells those as well at a $40 adapter that you can bolt on to your saw that works with that guide to make it a track saw.

Is it long enough to allow cutting full length of internal doors for my home

[kotch]

Simples! Gonna buy one today before i start these alcove shelves.

This video should have talked about the bora NGX track saw system. Essentially a clamp for your track saw that fits in the bora straight edge grooves. It replicates a REAL track saw.

[brucemullison]

I purchased this and deeply regret it. I find it only good for a straight edge now.
You have to have your board that you are cutting on a flat surface like a table, not saw horses. The board bows and the saw got caught between it and the piece. Really dangerous situation. So, use a big table.
The second problem was the sliding part of the clamp, at 1:30 in the video, gets stuck and difficult to unlock. I have to use a hammer to unlock it now. So this is the main reason I use it as a straight edge.

[ajgun]

And why do I need to spend $50 for this? I can use a straight metal channel/pipe, a straight piece of wood, a long level, aluminum extrusion, a t-square, literally anything straight with an edge and wood clamps to do this. Lmao

[kurtlouagie]

Definitely going this route. Does pretty much same as the track saw, but way cheaper and is not a dedicated system.🤘🤘awesome!!!
