The Track Clamp allows you to see and use your WTX or NGX Clamp Edge saw guide from a whole new angle. It used to be that you could only cut 90° angle with the BORA Clamp Edge. Now you can make any angle you want, thanks to the Track Clamp. Cutting a 35° angle. Go for it. A 67° angle. Easy. Even a 83.75° angle. If you really want to, the Track Clamps make it possible.
- Makes any angle fast, easy and accurate
- Easy to adjust and use with fast-acting lock nut
- Helps quickly process panel material
- Slides into both top and bottom of track for multi-purpose functionality
- Works with WTX and NGX clamp edge saw guides

It works but very time consuming checking and double checking that the saw is aligned correctly as well as the saw offset is correct for the cutting once aligned with the guide. The buckles aren’t as robust as i’d hope they’d be and are too flexible to be able to hold the saw in place without movement. one of my buckles wasn’t completely assembled as it was missing a pin for the closure. luckily i was able to get a nail to fit for the purpose. I’m happy with the product and i feel it provided me with straight cuts. it just takes a long time for set up.

Cuts straight lines and is a great tool. Guide does stick while cutting and adhesive tape starts to peel off when not in use.

This is a great tool. I’ve been fiddling for years with just clamping a long piece of straight wood to plywood when I need to make cuts with any precision. So, three clamps and a bulky piece of wood. It works, but it’s a pain. This tool allows you to clamp on sheet goods up to 4 feet wide and get cutting right away. It seems to clamp on consistently at a right angle, but I’m a bit compulsive, so I do check each time. You will have to do some calculation to know how far to set the clamp from where you need to cut–you have to calculate some offset from your saw’s guide. Unless–you can get the Bora Saw Plate that fits with this. If you have the saw plate, you fit your circular saw to the plate, attach an additional guide to the clamp edge, and after setup, you can set the guide to where you want your cuts. This speeds up the process like crazy, and basically gives you the capabilities of a track saw from your circular saw. Great stuff.

Awesome. I can now cut straight with my circular saw.

This guide makes cutting sheets of plywood, oriented strand board and composite siding much easier. In my opinion, this is a must have for the DIY handyman. Matched with the saw sled, you can cut straight edges up to fifty inches. My biggest concern is that the saw sled is made of plastic and I don’t know how much rough use it can handle. I have always had a problem free cutting sheet material squarely and this set up will help accomplish precise, straight edges.

I like that the t-tracks accept 1/4 x 20 bolts. I hope to get lots of use from it. It seems pretty solid.

This is a very convenient tool for cutting across large sheets, like plywood. Being 50″ wide means being able to handle 4′ sheets of plywood. Having a self locking feature is another nice feature. Simply line up on your marks, lock it into place and cut.

Outstanding way to make smooth straight cuts across sheeting, like plywood, particle board and paneling. The saw plate is well designed to accommodate many different manufacturers circular saws. I was easily able to attach the 2 saws that I have. The saw plate slides along the saw tracks to provide for easily sawing sheeting. The first section of track is long enough to fit across up to 50″. The second section of track fits on the end of the first to extend the length of cut to 100″. 4 screws are used to attach the 2 sections together. The tracks are made from rigid aluminum and the saw plate is made of plastic. even though it was made of plastic it was durable, rigid and held my 2 saws tightly in place. The only negative I found was somewhat vague installation instructions. Their website didn’t provide a lot more detail. Their customer service did provide a link to video and I ran across a really good one on the internet. Try searching Bora NGX.

Easy to use guide clamp that makes accurate cuts quickly. Saw base is easy to mount to your saw and easy to dial in. Great setup for ripping and cutting down plywood.

I love the clamp and rails.I was impressed with this edge clamp set. I have wanted one for a while now and was happy to get this one. The 50″ rails (2) have a good weight to them and when connected to make a 100″ single rail is very sturdy.I gave this set 4 stars because I didn’t like the setup of the saw attachment. I watched a couple of You Tube videos about connecting the saw to the plate and then to the rails. The directions included with the set also were a little vague for the first time user. After watching the videos, I decided to just use the rails. I do plan on using the saw plate attachment in the future, but didn’t want to take the time to figure out all the measurements. I will update my rating to 5 if I find the saw plate makes a great improvement. I did like the two extra clamps that are included in this set. I’m planning on building a shed in the near future and already see that some of the cuts will be improved with the versatility of these two clams to secure the rails. I am happy with this set and will be using it many times in my future. It’s a great buy and I want to learn how to use the saw plate. I think it will be a welcome piece once I figure out how to use it.

Sometimes the cut you want to make is difficult if not impossible on a table saw, especially if you are working alone. With this I can rip a full sheet into workable sections safely and comfortably on sawhorses. Plus if you are like me and can’t cut a straight line to save your life with a circular saw this will do that over and over with minimal effort. The quick clamp system is fast and easy to use on 90 degree cuts and you and attach the tracks with clamps at any angle if you need. Once you set the sled to know the offset of the blade the marks on the sled let you know if you are on your line and ready to cut. It breaks down into a small package and takes little room to store. I would say it is a good alternative to a table saw especially if storage space is at a premium.

This guide is easy to use for making long crosscuts of plywood. Very light, but held up well as I cut up seven sheets of plywood to build four cabinets

The Bora NGX Clamp Edge Saw Guide is a good way to get a straight line cut on sheets of plywood or even other sheet products. The basic construction of this tool is of an aluminum extrusion and a plastic clamping system that quickly adjusts to any length of material up to about 50 inches. The actual clamp is easy to use with a large clamping handle. This saw guide is lightweight and once clamped to sheet of material doesn’t stand high enough to interfere with those saws where the motor hangs out beyond the base plate of the saw. This means you can cut with either side of saw. I prefer to hang the motor side of the saw onto the larger (clamped side) of the material but you must decide which way the saw is going to go because the measurement from the edge of the saw’s base plate is different on each side. This brings up another concern in that the line to be cut has to be marked and the saw guide has to be off-set by that amount. My easy fix for that is to cut one or two small blocks of wood, measuring exactly the amount from the edge of the saw’s base plate to the blade, then use them to mark the location where your saw guide will be placed and secured. So that brings us to a point where you want to ask why not just snap a chalk line mark and follow it. I have to say that this clamp edge saw guide will provide a straighter cut than following a chalk line but it will take a lot more time and the results may not be worth it for many users. I want to also mention that Bora NGX has an accessory saw plate (Part #544001) that allows attachment of most circular saws and slides over the top of this saw guide that will give results similar to a track saw. I have included a photo of that product below. Overall I think that this is a good product that will provide excellent results when used properly but it requires much more time than using the good old chalk line.

Overall I like this Bora system. It clamps tight and did not bow while sawing. Once I got my circular saw mounted on the saw plate things went fast. I am glad I bought this system and I have used it often.

This product was not what I expected. I thought I could use it with the WTX system that I have, but it would mean I would have to doube up on to straight edges. I think they need to make T square accessary for WTX straight edge system,

I have this and the extension for a 104″ reach to rip sheet goods. But buying the two thinking you are going to reconfigure each time you “rip” and “crosscut” a 4×8 sheet is not going to work–too long and too much wear on the parts. It holds well, but takes time to set up straight. A little pricey!

Works great especially with worx exactrack circular saw. Cuts through 4 x 8 plywood straight every time!
