Kreg KMA2685 Rip-Cut

This makes it so easy to cut straight and equals sizes.

The Accu-Cut is nothing short of awesome! I am a self proclaimed DIY-er, and will try anything that might make my work easier, less time consuming and look better. It goes out about 48 inches which was short for my pergola boards, but my supports I was using made me have to shift my board anyways so I just readjusted from the other end of the board and it lined up perfectly. I had never tried anything put out by Kreg, but this apparatus is life changing for someone like me. When I got it I was in the process of building a pergola and not being very good at math I spent a lot of time measuring again and again to make sure I was doing it right. I was drawing lines all over my boards and literally making a mess of them. The thing eliminated so much of that nonsense. You simply align the saw in the guide, clamp it to the track line op the track with your tiny marks (like you would with a ruler) and it guides your saw all way without moving or shifting. So easy! The guide eliminates the splintering on some woods also. Being a DIY-er I don't tend to buy the expensive stuff so that was a true bonus for me. I wasn't sure about the no clamping part, but it never budged when I was using it. Since then I have started a bookshelf and have the parts I need to make a desk. I am no longer dreading some parts of the process because this product takes away a lot of the hassle. I will definitely be investing in other Kreg products.

I wish they would have made something like this 30 years ago. This Kreg saw guide includes a universal saw sled, an aluminum guide rail, a precision edge guide, and comes with detailed setup and usage instructions. The saw will follow the panels edge to give you the straightest cut. It will cut up to 24 inches in. There is no measuring or marking like in the old says which was a pain and took so much time to mark the plywood, and sometimes it would still not be straight. This Kreg unit solves that problem. No more guesswork! It also works with left or right blade saws. I saw an advertisement for a Kreg item on television and thought, (never heard of them) but after using this to cut 8 sheets of plywood that I have been wanting to put on my attic floor in no time tells me that the manufacturer put a lot of effort into this product, and if they put in the effort on this then I know they will put it on everything else they make. I highly recommend this unit.

I love this tool and am so excited for the endless potential this tool brings to our tool collection. I do a lot of “Do it Yourself” projects and are always asking my husband to cut different boards for me. And this is ALWAYS after we have left the home improvement stores where they will do it for you when you buy it. We only have a circular saw so unless you have a full work shop with clamps and all types of tools, cutting a straight line is near impossible. This tool will save us so so much trouble. Instead of taking it so slow and trying to get a kind of perfect cut we now have a amazing tool that ensures we get perfect cuts every time. My husband may get annoyed now that I can ask him for cuts anytime and all the time now that we do not have to make an elaborate plan to get a near straight cut. If you are in the market I would definitely recommend this brand because it is a well known company who makes great tools anyway so you really can not go wrong by choosing this particular tool.

This is a very useful tool for making accurate cuts with your circular saw. This is made well, it's heavy duty aluminum,not flimsy. My dad has one of these and he loves it,he said, you'll never make a mistake cutting again and it's very easy to use. You will have a straight,accurate and spinter free cut. This can be used for rip cuts,cross cuts and angled cuts or any angle. I like that you can use this with a left or right blade saw. This track makes up to 48 inches cut. It has a universal sled, precision saw track guides the saw easily along your cut line. I like that it has an anti-chip and anti- slip strips that create splinter free cuts and hold track without clamps.There are 2 tracks and each are 26.5 inches long. It also has a starting block that aligns and supports your saw. This is not recommended for saws with a plastic upper blade guide. This product is made in the USA. I recommend it because it makes your projects alot easier with accurate cuts.

Works well. Main complain - very cheap plastic parts, came with a difect on the aluminum ruller. I had to send it. Bad instractions.

this jig was pretty easy to set up and use. I just wish it wasn't made of so much plastic. works great right out of the box but we'll see how long it lasts. I've only made a couple cuts so far just to calibrate it.

Good concept, but implementation not so great. The cheesy plastic of the "sled" is especially uninspiring, and my Dewalt saw felt like it was barely staying in place on the sled. I also have Kreg's 720Pro pocket-hole jog, which I think is very well-designed. Kreg needs to bring that level of design to the Rip-Cut Guide, which might require charging more for it, but I'd rather pay more. Specifically, re-think the sled, both its materials of construction and how it holds the saw plate in place.

Item does not fit properly on every circle saw

Flimsy on the guuide, it's plastic so it's flimsy and your cut doesnt end up being straight im very disappointed
