Precise quick sheet cutting guide. Light, strong, well made and easy to use. Clamping NGX guide and bonus exact fitting saw plate allow time saving cuts. Especially for equal multiple sheet cutting. Clear consise instructions. Initial saw plate set up took a few minutes but once done allowed quick easy detach and reattaching of saw with quick release clamps. Guide clamps to hold securely for use with saw or saw plate. First task was squaring up plywood work surface, guide performed well, easily met expectations. Easy to set perpindicular using square then clamping in place for an accurate cut. The only issue was with the saw plate cut line indicator detaching after use. Likely knocked out. Inserting opposite way, more to my liking in use, care needs to be given when handling saw plate to prevent loss of cut line indicators. Selected the NGX guide for beadboard sheet cutting. Highly satisfied with guides ability to hold panel securely for precise clean cuts. Backing clamp slightly off panel allowed grip without bending for precise clean cuts. Guide quickly proved valuable for accurate quick sheet cutting but also as a straight edge and extension for level adding more value to the economical saw guide. A great DIY tool that performs very well. Highly recommend.

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,

Have you ever had to rip a piece of material and tried to do it with just a steady hand? It’s really hard to get a straight accurate cut. The Bora five piece clamp set with straight edge gives you the ability to get a straight clean cut. You can do four or eight foot material and if the clamp set is difficult to figure out there is a web site available with instructions on the proper use of this handy tool

This is a strong, easy to operate clamp with a versatile saw guide attachment (Model 544050, Made in China). The clamp is 50” in length, long enough to use on a 4′ x 8′ piece of plywood to cross-cut it. The clamp adjusts by sliding the clamp end, but the mechanism must be FULLY disengaged or it will not slide. As with most clamps, the edge will not automatically be square to the clamping surface so use a square to align the clamp. The clamping force is STRONG, and takes a bit of muscle to lock/unlock the clamp. It’s enough to actually bend 1/4” plywood (see photo) so it will hold tightly during use. The clamp has two parallel slots on it that are perfect for holding 1/4” bolts, including toilet bolts, meaning the clamp can be used with homemade jigs. There is a nice hanging hole at the top of the clamp. This clamp is much better than either of the other two 50” clamps I own and will get a lot of use.I normally cut plywood by just sliding my circular saw against the edge of the clamp, and usually don’t drift from the clamp. The Edge Saw Guide virtually eliminates the chance of drift by riding BOTH sides of the clamp. The base adjusts for most saws (right or left-handed) and locks onto the saw with three clamps. Adjustment is a one-time task, requiring a 3mm hex (allen) wrench, which was not supplied. Unfortunately for me, there was no way to adjust the clamping bolts to engage on a flat spot on my saw base, which has a grid pattern, so the grip was tenuous at best. The guide comes with a strip of plastic to be installed as a “non-chip” edge, preventing the wood from splintering along the cut (similar to a zero-clearance throat plate on a table saw). I chose not to install mine, as it limits the clamps use as an edge guide for other saws and/or router. The clamp and guide work perfectly without it, but the cut itself might not be as clean on the upper surface.For my money I would buy the clamp and skip the Edge Saw Guide, especially since it doesn’t fit my particular circular saw as well as it might fit others. It’s a good quality accessory, but doesn’t add enough value for me.

Saw plate gets hung up on track guide joint screw heads.

Cuts straight lines and is a great tool. Guide does stick while cutting and adhesive tape starts to peel off when not in use.
Precious Gerlach (verified owner) –
Excellent guide and easy to use. When the two parts are assembled, they formed a straight edge that was verified with a level. Highly recommended.

I really could have used this when I was building 4 barn doors for my basement. But I have two more to go and this will make the job much easier. It’s a pretty simple setup – the bars clamp easily to the work piece. And if it’s just straight cuts you can get away without the sled, just keep your saw pressed up against the track. The sled is a little tricky to attach straight but that’s more due to me being new to using a track saw. Couple of YouTube videos later and it was easy to figure out. And using the sled will ensure the saw doesn’t stray. All parts are very sturdy, very little flex in the bars. And the additional track clamps are a great addition – you can use bar clamps or C clamps, but to have clamps purpose built for this is much better. All in all, this is hands down better than screwing in scrap pieces of wood to serve as my guide and then having to fill holes. My only complaint, like others, is the instructions. Definitely not the easiest to follow.

It is a nice product but the clamp pressure is not that strong, it can slip and will if there is any pressure from the saw. Also the height or thickness is a little to much who’s had only allows the skill saw to be used in one direction. Slipping while clamp is set is main concern.

It makes cutting perfect straight lines with a circular saw easy. This will cut across the 48” side of plywood or any sheet good. You can also add another 50” section and rip the full length of a sheet of plywood. Cheaper than a track saw.

This Bora clamp deluxe just make my jobs so much easier I do carpentry, cabinets, and other wood work, now I can make my cuts much more straight, or in any angle, the with extension you can cut a plywood 8 feet long or you can take the extension off and do smaller cuts, the saw plate is included and so easy to attach a circular saw, you can move it to different measurements positions to make your cuts, definitely I will recommend this Bora clamp deluxe for smaller or big jobs

I had a problem with the non-chip strip; it was pulling away from the metal and adhesive after I installed it. I contacted the manufacturer and they immediately sent a replacement.

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

I have used a few different clamp edge guide before so I am familiar with this type of product. This one is the best one that I have used by far. For me, it is the clamping action that makes it stand out. This may seem simple but other manufacturers have not gotten this perfect in my opinion. The clamp holds very tight without squeezing the material too much. Others will either slip because they are not tight enough or they will be so tight that either the edge guide or the material is bowed. Bora gets it perfect!

I found this guide to be very solid as I did not see any measurable deflection when using it and it worked great as a guide. However, not a great track saw substitute. Using either the Saw Plate or just the guide, I found the cuts to be true. I also found that it helped when using the Saw Plate to use a dry lubricant (I used PTFE) on the guide as this allows the saw move much easier on the guide. The guide itself is easy to set up and when locked down it doesn’t move. Using the Saw Plate ensures that your cuts will be true. (I have been known to drift away from a guide.) I think the clamps that allow the guide to be used at an angle across a piece of plywood were very clever and worked great.However, I found the lack of instructions for setting it us to use like a track saw to be lacking to say the least. The instructions were just pictures without any written explanations of any of the steps. Consequently, it took me quite a while to get the saw(s) set up to see how they worked. In addition, it requires a metric allen wrench to set up a saw on the Saw Plate and this wasn’t included so I had to file down another allen wrench to fit. I set put the ‘non chip strip’ on the guide and tried the saw with 24-tooth blade and had minimal tear-out. However, when I switch to the saw with the 60-tooth blade I did have tear-out. Not sure why. I joined the two sections of the guide together to see how that worked and found the joint was not exact, and I had to file the bottom of the lead edge of the Saw Plate so it would not hang up on the joint.I recommend this product an the basis that you will get straight true cuts using the guide particularly when using the Saw Plate. I would have rated it higher if it in fact eliminated tear-out and the instructions were easier to follow. I also found that the nuts that are held in position when tightening the guides on the Saw Plate can rotate as they are not a snug fit in the slots they sit in.

This is a very useful tool overall, but the adhesive on the chip strip is weak and didn’t last for two days. Since the strip is not a necessary item, I can’t complain too loudly since I really like the rail and bracket.

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!

I am reviewing the saw plate, and the 100″ NGX two piece saw guide. Pros1) Easy to set upCons1) The saw plate is plastic. The buckles that hold it to your saw are aluminum, but they are secured to a plastic base.2) The saw guide clamping mechanism is plastic. There’s no way that clamp is going to stand up to years of use 3) It takes quite a bit of force to securely clamp the guide to your work piece, which tends to move the guide a tiny bit from your proposed cut line. You can back off the clamp pressure if you want, but then you risk the guide moving during your cut.4) When mounted on the saw guide, the saw plate rocks a bit from side to side. You can see this on YouTube videos. Since it doesn’t make contact with the wood, it is unstable and will not produce an accurate 90 degree edge5) The saw plate comes with a 55″ cutting strip, but the 100″ guide doesn’t include any strip. So basically, if you want to make clean cuts, you need to spend another $20 for an addition Non-Chip Strip. Not cool Bora!6) The two 50″ cutting guides are made of a thin gauge aluminum. It’s not a problem where cutting is concerned, but just shows how quality took a back seat to profits.Here’s the bottom line;If it came with a 100″ cutting strip, had metal clamps on the guides, and was priced under $100, I’d give it an additional star because the design is kind of cool. As it stands now, it’s an overpriced, over-hyped, novelty item. I returned mine after one use, and decided to make my own with 80/20 aluminum.

I have wanted a track saw to breakdown plywood for a long time, but I could not justify the cost for a tool that I would use only a few times per year. The Bora NGX 5-Piece Clamp Edge Deluxe Set is well designed, extra sturdy and easy to use. The Bora NGX Set is less than one-third the cost and functions just as well as a track saw; therefore I think it is the perfect alternative for the DIYer who cannot afford a track saw. The BORA NGX clamping system is super strong and will not slip. I was especially pleased with the track clamps that came with the set, they allow the clamps to be used to make cuts at angles other than 90 degrees. Joining the two 50 inch straight edges together with the track clamps allow for angle cuts even on sheets of plywood. A phillips head screwdriver is required to connect the two straight edges together, but even though this may be a hassle, it serves to insure that the straight edge is indeed straight.I was impressed that the set even came with 2 Rolls of 55-inch self-adhesive non-chip strips used for reducing top edge tear-out. I was disappointed with the instructions that came with the set, I found them to be almost useless. I also had to look through several tool bags to find a #3 allen wrench which is required to move the brackets that hold the skill saw on the saw plate—it seems that a #3 allen wrench could be included in the set. I did find a wonderful video on YouTube from WorkshopAddict that does an excellent job of showing me all of the features of the BORA NGX set.I would definitely recommend the BORA NGX 5-Piece Clamp Edge Deluxe Set for anyone who already has a skill saw and is looking for a low cost alternative to a track saw.
