Review on πŸ”ͺ Maximize Precision and Speed with the Bora Saw Guide 544006 by Gavin Ghram

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Well made but too small

I really like the different Bora products I've bought so far. I was really looking forward to that. I received it yesterday and immediately opened it and dropped the packaging. I wish I hadn't thrown away the packaging. I am planning to use it on my Bosch 6 1/2" cordless circular saw. I have tried attaching the saw plate to my saw. I attached my saw but barely. The plate would be much better if it had the plate 2 or 3" wider to hold the front of the saw base in place. One of the two clamps fits snugly on the saw blade while the second barely fits the saw base. One of the reasons the second clamp does not fully fit the saw base is that the portion of the clamp with the screw that needs to be tightened on the saw base is too long to rest on the front of the saw.The Bora saw plate should also be at least 2" longer to accommodate the backgauge on the back of the Attaching the saw base My saw base is on the short side as this is a cordless saw I need to remove the spring from the hold down so I can attach the bolt between the saw motor and the height lock on the saw n. The saw blade also does not fit neatly into the Bora saw guide. It has a little lateral play. I think I'll try tightening it down with some tape on the inside of the saw blade. I think overall it's a good concept, but it definitely needs improvement. I'll take a look at how it works, but some modifications may need to be made to make it work better with my saw.
