Review on πŸ”ͺ WTX or NGX Clamp Edge Jigsaw Guide: The Ultimate Tool for Straight Cuts and Steady Jigsaw Guiding -542009 by Terrance Haralson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works perfectly. When sliding this jigsaw along the guide.

Works great. There's a bit more play/loosening than I'd like when sliding this jigsaw clamp over the front edge of the Bora, but again, it's plastic and inexpensive, but it works well enough to warrant five stars. It's made of plastic so I can't expect extremely tight tolerances as plastic, being a softer material, needs more latitude to move freely. Although the thing works great. This is a fairly accurate guide and I have used it to make many long cuts (6 to 8 feet wide) in sheets of melamine and the cuts all came out straight and aligned on the edges with the guide. This is certainly better than freehand and an attempt to overcome the natural misalignment of a jigsaw blade without a guide. This instrument was a good purchase, definitely exceeded my expectations.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • unreliable
