Review on πŸ”§ POWERTEC 71391 Precision Miter Gauge System: 24” x 3” Track Fence with 27 Stops for Table Saws by Raul Choudhury

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent product in the Power and Hand Tools category

Just received. The outer box is a little small and wrinkled. The inner box from mfg is good. When I opened the inner packaging I noticed that it was well designed. Removing all elements looks fine. I noticed that the 2 pre-installed screws on the expansion drive didn't work well and were dangling around the box. No problem. All individual parts and Allen keys were in separate sealed bags. Good. Not 1, but 2 instructions are attached to the product. 1 for the corner stop and 1 for the stop. Normal, clearly written English. The telephone number for technical support is given in a clearly visible place. It is also pretty. I haven't checked support and I don't want to. All other details checked, everything is very good. No scratches or damage. Assembly was easy and hassle-free. I added a nylon washer between the angled grip support washer and the sensor face. I just thought it would protect the sensor area from scratches. anal no Take care and upgrade the things I buy. Yes! The product feels and looks like a good sound product. A very strong feeling. The blue anodized surface of the fence is very attractive. I haven't tested how thick/deep the anodized surface is. Not conducive to good work. Angular stop checked in a square. They provide instructions to fix it if necessary. I gave this product 5 stars (rare for me) because it deserves it in every way except for the outer shipping packaging. This has nothing to do with the end result here. Right? I will be using it on my precision 5 foot computer controlled router table. Let's see if this angle sensor can match what this table suggests. I hope this honest review will trump the dishonest (many) reviews products receive. I will update this review after testing it. I will correct the stars if necessary. Hope that helps.
