Product Information

Saw blade run-out. This doesn't affect the straightness of the cut, but makes those ripply saw marks in your edge. A quality saw in good condition exhibits very little run-out. When it comes to making your woodworking life easier, Kreg is one of the forefront companies with their jigs and more. Kreg has been known to create quality and easy to use jig systems.

Saw shoe not square. It's hard to get them truly square because blade is small diameter and doesn't give you much to place your square against. Making a cut, then turning one part over and placing the cut edges together will tell you how square you really are. Placing the saw on top of some sort of guide like this can exaggerate out-of-square errors. The Kreg Portable Crosscut offers and easy and fast solution for making accurate cuts with a circular saw. Retractable cutline indicator arms help to align your saw to your pencil mark, and show exactly where the blade will cut. This guide cuts workpieces up to 8" wide at both 90 ° and 45 ° .

Yaw. This is "directional instability" in nautical jargon. If you are using an edge guide, it can grab and release and cause the saw to sort of jiggly-yaw around and gives a rough edge. Poor measurements. Be more careful. My saws have a blade that is offset 5", exactly, from any fence that the saw is guiding from. The Accu-Cut™ is easy and intuitive for a novice to use, but robust enough for professionals. Because it eliminates the need to keep the saw straight and manually guide the saw along a cut line, the Accu-Cut™ is ideal for less-experienced users. Our Crosscut Station offers a simple and versatile solution to make accurate miter cuts with just a circular saw. It is lighter and more portable than a miter saw, allowing for more time building projects and less time setting up and storing bulky tools. The Crosscut Station makes crosscuts at 90 ° in pieces up to 12" wide. It's also great for making a variety of angle cuts from 0 ° and 90 ° with the adjustable fence. Works with left- and right-hand saws.Special event, club or membership offers, third party promotions or prices not available to the general public The next key component of the system is the saw sled. It’s a little surprising how light it is. Aside from the clamps and fasteners, it’s all plastic. For this review, I mounted my Ridgid 18V Gen 5X brushless circular saw and found that the sled fits like a glove! The clamps that hold the sled to the saw are metal, but watch out for over tightening. Just snugging up the set screws is sufficient to hold the sled in place. With the Kreg system, it’s much easier than my level method, plus I get a clean smooth cut. The pads on the bottom do a great job holding it in place when I make a cut. Have you ever wanted to make a crosscut along a sheet of plywood or another long cut? Currently, you have a couple of options to perform this task. You can free eyeball it, set up your own jig or invest in a rail system such as Dewalt, Makita or Festool. I have two methods for guiding my cuts. I have an 8' shooter board made from 1/4" plywood with a 3/8" aluminum bar screwed onto it. Run the saw along the bar and it cuts the plywood to the exact offset of the saw blade. Now you can align that edge with your mark and you know exactly where the cut will be made. If the edge of the plywood gets messed up, or if you are about to start a new project, just move the aluminum bar over 1/4" and re-cut the board.

I've cut plywood and laminates and slatwall, etc. without a table saw for decades. I've made cabinetry and retail store fixtures and on an on. I have found that there are multiple ways that the cut can get messed up: I have to say the Kreg Accu-Cut system is pretty neat. There are a lot of times I try and free cut along a line. Sometimes it comes out straight, other times it looks pretty bad. The times where I really need to make sure the line is straight, I always set up a straight line. I take my level, make the proper adjustments for the width of the shoe, clamp down the level and make my cut. It works and I never have too much of an issue.
