BORANGX Saw Plate RT Circular Saw Guide, For Straight Cuts, designed for use with Bora NGX and WTX Clamp Edge System, Adjustable to fit most Circular Saws 546001

Easy to get your saw in and out. Fits in like a glove with the Bora NGX rail. Moves smoothly along the rail and guides straight. Much, much better system than the Kreg Accu Cut. Great alternative to expensive track saw systems. I also recommend the Bora Router Guide that you can use with their rails. Cut many superbly accurate dados with that one.

Been doing floating shelves and this tool with the guide works great. Helps make some really striaght cuts.

I wanted to share my experience with using BORA tools recently. Overall, I have been very impressed with the products they offer. However, I believe there are a few areas where improvements can be made.Firstly, I feel that BORA tends to release their products too early in the design phase. This can make it difficult to determine which item is the newest model, as they frequently change and upgrade their products. For instance, when I purchased the first item, 544001, it was good, but I encountered an issue with it not accommodating the newer battery-powered circular saw. The battery blocked the rear clamp from engaging and being grabbed by hand. As a result, I had to return that item and purchase a different one that worked with my circular saw. I'm happy to say that this particular model worked wonderfully, although I did face some challenges with the rails. Thankfully, BORA quickly sent out a solution based on my suggestions, which resolved the issue. After applying the new parts, I had no hassle and the tool worked like a charm.While I appreciate the responsiveness of the company to inquiries and their willingness to listen to customer feedback, I do believe there is room for improvement. Specifically, I think the design could have been sturdier and could benefit from some sort of frame to enhance stability during setup. Additionally, I found the setup process itself to be quite challenging, partly because BORA lacks comprehensive instructions for their products. These factors are why I have deducted one star from my rating.Despite these shortcomings, I genuinely believe that BORA is a promising company and is heading in the right direction. They are receptive to feedback and even implement changes if they make sense. Granted, they may be a younger company, but they have the potential to grow and improve. I fully support them and look forward to reviewing more of their products in the future.For those considering purchasing a BORA tool, I recommend thoroughly examining their full lineup to ensure compatibility with your particular model saw. In my case, I used a RIDGID 18V BRUSHED 6-1/2 IN CIRC SAW (Model Name: R8655). Unfortunately, it did not work with the first model (544001), but it did work with the one I eventually purchased here.Thank you for your attention, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further clarification.

The issue may be a biological one (between my brain and the product) but the saw continues to slip around so the measurement is continuously off and sometimes halfway through the cut. I have tried putting in a stop block to help but that didn't help either.With it slipping, the distance from the edge of the board to the Bora straight edge - the width between the edge of the guide to the blade continuously changes. My cuts are continuously off by 1/16th - 1/8th of an inch.For now, I'm just using the straight edge but not returning the product to see if I can figure out why this is happening. This isn't that complicated.

Cheap piece of plastic junk. Does not fit the saw well and will not stay fastened to the saw. Avoid at all costs. Spend the extra money for a better tool. I'd give this thing zero stars if I could.

I used this for cuts on a large cabinetry project for my garage. I used maple ply and needed to be super careful with my cuts as the sheets ran about $80.This locked onto my cordless Milwaukee perfectly. It's super easy to lock in and then remove the saw quickly. I looked at the Kreg version of this but didn't like that you had to mount it with set screws.Seems to be made out of very durable plastic, with a rubber grip surface. It's heavier than I expected (in a good way). I dropped it a few times accidentally and there wasn't any damage or issues with accuracy that I noticed.

I have not use yet but it appears to be good quality and easy-to-use.

I wanted to like this guide plate and could see a lot of potential for it but it was immediately apparent that the plate would not fit my 6.5" makita cordless circular saw. Unfortunately, the locking mechanism for the plate interferes with the ability of the circular saw to achieve maximum depth cuts because the locking mechanism is right below the battery pack preventing the saw sole plate from swinging up fully.Since the guide can't be used I will not be getting the other Bora products associated with this circular saw guide.
