I never use the table saw for long cuts, I dont have the money space or work for cabinet saw or fancy feed tables, etc. Give me two saw horses and this rig and I can cut just as accurate as a cabinet shop albeit not as fast!

For some reason I've blessed (cursed?) with the ability to unwittingly cut turn straight lines into crescent cuts with a circular saw. Having a guide like that would be very helpful. It looks well constructed and the price isn't bad either. Abe This looks really handy, especially for someone like me.

It's massively easier to use than a table saw for big sheets (unless you have roller stands and stuff for the table saw; I don't and I don't the space to use them). Mine came with a pair of small C-clamps. This one's t slot clamps to be a bit less clumsy. And the extra ribs (slot rails) make it look sturdier than mine.

This arrangement pops loose if you put too much sideways pressure on it. I like the looks of clamps on this. I might try to mill one to fit the extruded slot on mine.
