Review on Makita P-20177 Guide Rail Connector Kit, 2/pk: The Perfect Tool for Seamless Guide Rail Extensions by Mike Anderson

First of all, it is important: it works. Yes, there was a problem with the threads, they weren't clean enough. I didn't have a faucet so I took a set screw from the kit (there is an extra one) and carefully threaded it through the entire thread, doing 3/4 turns forward and 1/2 back and adding a drop of oil to all the holes. If you try this, make sure you start on the right side - the one opposite the small ledges with ledges. one works with it) Besides, it worked. I couldn't find any instructions on the Makita website, but YT came to the rescue. The two parts of the rails went together perfectly, the connection turned out to be straight and rigid. It would be great if Makita added a few inches to each rail so the standard 55" + short rail would add up to 8 feet, but yeah, you've got to get those sales numbers somehow.
