i had used this guide in the past meaning a few months ago and it does work great the only thing i found wrong was the price for a few peices of plastic it is quite costly last i remember it was around 200.00 or so for a 100 inch cutting guide ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Rossi To: BlindHandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, April 23, 2007 10:27 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Fancy shmancy saw guide.
The saw guide I referred to in an earlier post is an EZ Smart guide from EurekaZone It is simply a plastic shoe that you have to attach to the shoe of your circ saw. You have to drill four holes in the shoe of your saw and then bolt this plastic shoe on. The plastic shoe has a groove in it that matches up with a raised rail on a metal track. The track is four feet long and about 5 inches wide. The rail runs down the center of it. There is a flexible plastic strip that runs along the lower edge of the track. The first time you use it, you just run the saw along it to trim the plastic edge and now you can just line up the edge of that plastic strip and that is exactly where your saw will cut. It actually comes with two four foot long tracks so you can connect them together to make longer cuts. There are two clamps that slide in t shaped grooves on the bottom of the track so if you want, you just throw the track on what you are going to cut, slide the clamps into place and tighten them down. It is a pretty slick system. Not sure of the price as it was a Christmas gift from my wife and she ain't talkin. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.
