Kreg KMA2685 Rip-Cut Circular Saw Guide - Cutting Tool - Guide is Best for Regular (Side-Blade) Circular Saw - Ensure Compatibility Before Use - Woodworking Tools for Home Improvement

This circular saw guide is beyond what I expected. It works on a whole different level—super accurate, easy to use, and makes every cut clean and straight. It really improved my workflow and saved me time. I would definitely recommend this to everyone, whether you're a beginner or experienced. Great value and a solid tool to have.

EDIT Its update time on this one yall. To start I stand by my enitial review of the product. After a few uses the slideing action did smooth out as I thought it would. As I allso mentioned the plastic felt like it was to brakable. And this latest episode ads credence as to why I feel It should be all mettle. The plastic lock snapped while I was sinching it down after an adjustment. I had not at any point in time gottent ruff with the tool. BUT it was sitting out in the blazeing sun for a good while as I was working out doors and had no real shade. So I do wander if the exces heat on the plastic didnt play a part in it. Iv uploaded picures to show whare the failure occured I'm highly satisfied with this tool. It's a snap to put together its light waight and easy to use. If you can mess up your cuts with this you mayby might want to find something ells to do Now despite my happiness with this product I do have some mild constructive criticism. 1 it would be really nice to get and all mettle version of this tool. I just feel like all the plastic parts can be broken. Even at a cost premium I would pay it 2 the adjustment on this thing is herky jerky rough not at all as smooth as I feel it could and should be it can allso effect fine mesurements. But Mayby this will level out with more use 3 this gose back to the all metle parts thing again. But the plastic clamp that holds the main line in place i wish wer metel as it feels like something that could eventuilly get warn out and iether snap or not make good grip. As well as the saw clamps themselves theyr metle rods anchored to plastic and the way that whole portion of the unit flexes upwhen ypu put tension on the mounting screws. Yea I think you can do somthing about that Now befor anyone starts throwing rotten food at there monitore I'm actuilly not bagging on this product far from it. So far nothing is brocken and everything is holding together. This is so far a good product. These are all just feed back for the company to take into consideration on any future tool updates

The lock down is plastic and feels very cheap. It's easy to set up and use. It is great for ripping down large sheets of stock without having to try and ride a line. I will use the heck out of it. Good value.

The Kreg KMA2685 Rip-Cut guide is a game-changer for straight, accurate cuts with a side-blade circular saw. Setup is fast and simple, and once clamped, the guide stays rock solid — no wobble or drift. Cuts come out perfectly straight every time, which makes a huge difference on sheet goods or long boards. I’ve used it on plywood, MDF, and solid wood, and it performs flawlessly every time. It’s lightweight, easy to store, and incredibly sturdy. Tip: Double-check your saw’s compatibility before purchasing, but if it fits, this guide will dramatically improve your cutting accuracy and confidence. Highly recommended for DIYers and professionals alike — precision and peace of mind in one simple tool.

Key words “Saw guide”! This item works as it should and is well worth the money. It’s amusing that so many bad reviews have been left because the item “feels like it’ll break”. This item is made of ABS plastic which is the same material found in the interior and exterior of cars! Its durable hard plastic. Indestructible? No absolutely not. I purchased this to use as a GUIDE and it did exactly what the marketed name implies. Other reviews state that it wasn’t square out of the package. Mine was slightly off but I unscrewed the guide handle and adjusted it prior to use. Other reviews stated that the “ruler guide” was off by an 8th of an inch so I didn’t even bother using it. I used a T-edge that I already knew to be accurate to mark my cutting point prior to adjusting my saw/saw guide. My only complaint is that i wish this guide attached to the saw at both ends because when you attach it to the nose of the saw the guide pulls away from the saw base plate at the opposite end. This doesn’t impact its effectiveness for once the saw is laid down the weight of the saw closes the gap but some people tend to lift their saw at the end of the cut instead of pushing all the way through the cut which could be problematic resulting in chipping especially if you’re cutting a MDF/HDF with a veneer as I was. FYI i used a 40T blade to prevent the veneer from chipping.

Has worked well for my needs. I keep thr plate on my 2nd circular saw that way I don't have to place the plate on the saw again. Have made quite a few cuts with it now and is making cutting the same curts alot easier. Measure 2 times cut once. Then make the same cut over and over without measuring for each cut.

Excelente producto. Es justo lo que necesitaba para hacer cortes precisos

I bought a cheaper one off Amazon which failed miserably over the quality of the securing grub screws which were useless, they failed within a couple of times removing the saw from the frame. So I sent it back and purchased the Kreg one. The Kreg is a much superior quality tool in every way. So pay the extra and go for the Kreg you won't regret it. It's really accurate and can soon rip a 4 ft board in half, so if like me, you like to buy 8x4 sheet material but have to have it delivered because you can't get the width of the board in your car, this is ideal for ripping them into 2 ft widths to slide into the car, if you have the right car that is of course, which I thankfully do. I've also removed and replaced my saw numerous times and the grub screws haven't had any issues, like the cheaper version I previously purchased. So I'm well happy!

Fonctionne à merveille, dommage qu’il ne soit pas plus long. C’est un must
