Evolution Power Tools ST2800 Circular Saw Guide Rail/Track Fits Makita, Bosch, Festool, (Clamps and Carry Bag Included), 2-Piece Track (1400mm x 2) 2800 mm

One of the best tools I have bought, in a long time! Easy to use once you have your chosen length an put it together.I have since purchased the longer panels which allows me to easily rip a 8x4 sheet.Positives:The track panels appear well made (versus the cost), are pretty straight and packs neatly away in the provided bag. Even with my additionally purchased longer panels.The saw runs well along the track as long as long as you have put it together properly and is a decent tool in its self. It can handle all materials that I have cut using it.A more affordable DIY home use version of the more expensive professional types that are available so in terms of value for money - its right up there in the DIY arena.The clamps are fairly good and do work well. However, see below for the negatives on these.Although I consider the following to be the negatives, they are minor and I still gave it the well deserved 5 stars:The clamps are not all that strong and do bend if you are not careful. Looks like cheaper material has been used to keep costs down and may require a re-weld on the joints at some stage. Not an issue to me as I have a MIG welder. But weak non the less so be wary not to over tighten them.The plastic/ rubber guide strip get chewed up quite quickly if you are not careful. Mine are now all but gone but you just compensate for it when placing the panels on your piece you are cutting. It still works as intended without them. These can be replaced if you are that bothered about it.Putting the tracks together require the Allen Key for the small grub locking screws (4 per strip and 2 strips per panel) and is quite fiddly, but do clamp the pieces together well. I would prefer some sort of quick lock system, but you would pay more for that so am happy with the system it has.All in all, a great HOME USE product. My opinion is; its not a professional piece of kit by any means, but does stand up well against its vastly more expensive Pro-Use competitors.

Excellent value for money. They work well with my Makita-pattern tracksaw (MacAlister). The new joiners are a real joy to use

Well packaged. Tracks look well made. Fit together well with the self aligning cams. Tracks look straight. I will check them against a trusted straight edge to be sure. Not tried them yet for accuracy, still waiting for the saw to be delivered. All edges look well machined, no rough edges. Edge strips look in good order and clamps look ok, again not used them yet.The bag is pretty much useless. The rails are a very tight fit. Taking them in and out regularly may damage the edge strip. The Velcro, which runs along the outside of the bag, is not really strong enough to hold the flap closed. Which means, as soon as you lift the bag up with the weighty tracks inside, it splits open. Making the bag with a heavy duty zip would be a much better design. I may take mine to the local seamstress to get one sewn in. Overall, it offers no real protection for the rails. Maybe a padded snowboard bag would be better.

I have the same brand track saw and bought these to cut full panels.I know it feels like a lot of money and it is, but my view is that it is well worth it.The quality and accuracy I get with these I could not match otherwise.They are solid and allow you to cut straight for 2500mm (you need to leave the first 30cm or so free to put the plunge saw)You get also two clamps very usefull and solid, as well as two sliders that go underneath to joing the two 1400mm together. Obviously to join the tracks use a long spirit level or something else to make sure you get them right. It's very easy once you try a few times.I had to gently file the shap corners of the beginning and end of tracks before using them, to ease the process of getting the plunge saw in and out but that took two minutes it's no big deal.

Brilliant, I am really impressed with evolution power tools and this guide rail does not disappoint. Sturdy construction complete with clamps and a carry case, price was great also

This rail is brilliant. So much better than what I had before. Very stable and the two parts join securely. I can't feel with the plunge saw when I pass over the connection. Feels nice and solid and well built. Fully compatible with my Parkside Performance PPTSA 20-Li C3 plunge saw. Also fully compatible with the Fonson MK1 guide rail square. Tried a few cuts and they were so easy and accurate I started using this kit even for cross cuts as it was faster than bringing the piece to the mitre saw.

This is the first product I have purchased from Evolution. The tracks are perfectly straight and feel well made. Dewalt saws are perfectly compatible because they can run on both Festool and Dewalt tracks. This feels like an upgrade to the standard Dewalt track because the Evolution is stiffer and more rigid and has an extra T slot for accessories like saw stops or parallel guides. Very happy with my first Evolution purchase, makes me want to invest in other products from them. 10/10
