Hardly normal for such a price

The deck is quite thin and warps easily, so it doesn't slide smoothly on the rail. Terminals are complete junk. They didn't even hold my cordless Dewalt saw with enough pressure that they couldn't be let go. I made some belt clips that are easy and work great. I only use Bora clamps as stops. After my revision, the system works well for cutting sheet materials that will later be sawn on a table saw.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • There are flaws

Will not work with any of my saws

I bought this with an edge clip to cut the underside of the doors. None of my Milwaukee circular saws (2830-7ยผ", 2630-6ยฝ") can be lowered enough to cut 1ยฝ" no matter where I move the clamps that hold the base plate to this saw plate. On a 7ยผ" -Saw, the motor protrudes beyond the base plate and the saw plate is too thick to fully lower the saw blade onto it. On a 6ยฝ inch saw, the saw plate under the base plate is just too thick to drop the saw blade far enough. And that's after throwing away the

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Some problems

NOT AS ADVERTISED - Circular Saw Accessory

Saw does not hold securely or accurately. Moved to use. Not for every saw, especially the Dewalt 7 1/4". Fragile construction. Rotation lock with lock nut doesn't work. Only turns. Should have known cheap Chinese plastic construction wouldn't be a solid construction or useful product. I can tell you can't tell if it works or not.The saw kept moving and made a terrible cut.The NGX 90ยฐ attachment on the guide rail is also a complete failure.Not square unless used on a log home.per foot .(=sheetโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Will not fit all

great tool/system. but.

It ended up being a great tool, but. BUT! I had to clean up the edges and surfaces that fit together. This part slides in a metal guide. Both the "saw plate" and the metal rails had raw, rough edges and a sticky adhesive that kept them from slipping. It needed a bit of deburring to keep them from being sent back as "defective". The metal rails also had almost non-removable decals in several sliding contact areas. I had to use lacquer thinner to remove the glue. Now that all parts and areas have

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Only available in white

I bought this to make clean and straight cuts on melamine shelves. The first cuts turned out great! Yesterday I cut open a stack of 6 shelves outside in the sun and found them crooked and crooked. The rubber tabs on the yokes and the traction bars on the plate were found not to work well when heated. I checked that all three collars are tight and snug and tried again - the saw still wanders. I removed all 3 of those clamps and instead modified my saw's base plate to have four 10-32 mountingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Trial version for one year
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Emptor Caveat - Saw Blades, Parts & Accessories

I can only speak for the general design and installation/compatibility as I have not been able to install it on any of my circular saws. Clamps + reversible for south arm saws Not very good - Only fits a small set of saws - Clamps are too bulky to fit - Older design (544006) with 2 front and 1 side clamp is more versatile. Tested on: Makita 5007MGA, much older skil saw - clamps interfere with depth/angle lock levers on Makita, only front and side front can all be purchased, and with limitedโ€ฆ

  • Decent performance
