Straight Talk…About Straight Cuts Using Saws.
There are a lot of people who still believe you can only get straight, splinter-free
cuts in a shop using expensive panel saws, table saws, and CNC equipment. Getting
quality cuts with portable power tools doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive.
The truth is…that with the right power tools, anyone can get great results in the
shop or on the jobsite. Straight, splinter-free cuts are easy, once you know the
secret.
The Plunge Cut Saw and Guide Rail System.
What is a
plunge cut saw and
guide rail system? Some people would describe it as
a circular saw riding on an aluminum rail. This would be a gross understatement,
and would overlook the major advantages that a plunge cut track saw and guide rail
system offer. Designed properly, a high quality plunge cut track saw and guide rail
system is a precision piece of equipment, as well thought out as most stationary
equipment. The combination of a precision plunge cut saw, and a guide rail will
create a system that generates precision cuts anywhere on a panel quickly and safely…cuts
that should never be attempted with a traditional circular saw.
