Purchased this kit to augment a WTX have owned for many years. Clamp mechanism of NGX is much better design IMO and is easy to set. Using the saw sled with Mak 18V LXT sidewinder and this combo works well to add and easy to set up track saw rig for panel work in my pocket shop.

BORA 5-Piece Clamp Edge Saw Guide. Well built and nice features. When the extension is added, it can handle an eight foot piece of plywood. I dropped this product down a point because the instructions could use a lot more detail. Especially on installing the non-chip strips. Took me a while and a phone call to figure it out. First, straighten the strips out as much as possible. Second, the blue covering needs to be removed from the double sided tape. If your not careful, you’ll remove the tape along with the blue covering. One strip on each guide. Make sure the strip is on the same side of each guide. The side of the strip that has the tape goes on one side of the bottom of the guides (lower step on bottom). When the strip is installed, the tape side of the strip should be level with the upper step of the guide. The other edge of the strip should overhang the edge of the guide. The saw should be used on the side of the guide with the strip attached (overhang). Mounting the saw to the saw plate was easier and is adjustable in all directions. I stored my saw with the plate attached. The adjustible clamp holds the board tightly and gives you a ridgit, straight guide to cut on. Can be used with or without the sawplate. Using the saw plate is easier.

This clamp edge guide is a fantastic addition to any shop! It is surprisingly light weight, made from extruded aluminum, but very durable. The clamps are a strong plastic material, and the clamp surfaces that touch the material to be cut have a rubber, non-abrasive grip surface.The clamp is ~50″, easily able to be used to rip a full sheet of plywood. One of the clamp ends slides on an internal track making it easily adjustable. That means the clamp can be used to cut any width of wood from ~48″ to 3″ wide. Overall a very useful tool for making long, straight cuts!

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 NGX Saw Plate can be great but it does not fit my Milwaukee M18 circular saw and the directions are complicated. The plate will hold the vast majority of circular saws though and glides across the BORA NGX Saw Edge systems. The problem with my M18 circular saw is that its bottom plate is not a rectangle, the back inside end does not have a corner for the clamp to attach nor can I ensure that my saw is perfectly square on the ruler marks of the NGX plate (see pictures). The directions are complicated. First, I put the no-chip strip in the wrong spot. The directions say to put it on the edge of the NGX Edge saw guide but didn’t specify underneath the Edge. I tried to remove the strip but the adhesive came off too and it was a mess. Second, its fairly easy in theory to mount a saw on the plate but the directions make it difficult. I found myself wondering what the heck an “excrusion” is. The illustrations could be much better. This plate is well-engineered and sturdy. Using this plate, it is much easier to get an accurate cut because the no chip strip tells you where the blade will cut as opposed to not using the saw plate and measuring the distance from your circular saw’s blade to the edge of the edge clamp. I still use my NGX Edge saw guide as its a great substitute for lugging big boards across a table saw. The saw must be mounted perfectly on this plate for smooth and clean cuts. Made in China.

Thought I was getting Justin and guide clampdown style for for power saw ended up getting a bonus edge guide which my circular saw fits into which I thought was rather nice used it a couple times so far seems to work rather well there’s a chip strip that goes with the text chance to stop the wood from chipping back if you’re doing doors so you don’t chip the edges makes it look clean would recommend this for anybody replacing or buying a new Edgcote clampdown style

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.

Good quality product for the price. Maybe not as nice as a good track saw, but for the few projects I do each year it works fine. Allows straight cutting of 4×8 sheets in both directions. It works best with saws that have a flat metal base on top. My Porter Cable saw has ridges on top of the base which creates some problems. I ended up purchasing a Dewalt saw as the base is flat on top. I’d recommend getting a separate 4′ section for cross cutting sheets of plywood (4′ direction) to avoid having to keep taking the guide apart. Also the saw sits fairly high off of the wood so the cutting depth is reduced quite a bit. A 6 1/2″ blade would be marginal.

BORA NGX Clamp Edge Saw Guide is a quality guide for circular saws, routers and even jig saws. It is made of heavy duty aluminum with an excellent clamping method that secures the guide rail above on top of the sheet goods with an edge clamp. The handle to tighten the guide is easy to use by one person and doesn’t budge at all when used with the saw. A secure fit is critical in preventing the saw from wandering off the cut. It doesn’t happen often, but it can ruin the cut and I’ve done it. I had a shorter Rockwell guide and it wasn’t nearly as well done as this one. There is an optional second section that can be joined to this 50-inch rail extending it to handle rip cut for sheet length goods, too.An advantage of this system is the excellent options that can be had, sold separately, to make it even better to use. I used my rail with their universal circular saw plate that mounts the circular saw using hold down clamps. The plate can then be slipped into the slots on the top of the aluminum rail securing it. It then works more closer to a track saw. Included with the plate is a length of 3M non-chip strip to attach to the bottom of the plate along the saw blade, reduces any top edge tear-out for a cleaner cut. This is useful for bonded veneers. Bora has similar plates for routers and a jig saws that slip into the slots on the top of the rail. Finally, I was at initially concerned about the plate being plastic. It is thick plastic and feels substantial for DIY work, all well done. I tried the rail and saw plate out with my Milwaukee cordless circular saw and it fit nicely after about five minutes of making set-up adjustments. You have to slide over the hold down rail that has two clamps and make it exactly parallel to the saw blade and lined up on the plate’s blade guide. It is all easily done with allen screws and a flat slotted screwdriver. Really not a big deal, but the saw has to be accurately lined up to get a straight cut. I didn’t use their non-chip tape and didn’t need it for the MDF used. Overall, this is an excellent tool for crosscutting sheet goods. The rail alone is first rate and with the circular saw plate it goes quicker and is more accurate. I also own a small work-site table saw and when working alone prefer this method to cut sheet goods on two saw horses. It just is safer with my experience level and equipment setup. I feel the Bora system however you’ve configured it is a good value for DIY-ers to other methods.

Sticks to the guide rail but overall Good saw plate

This is a must have for small shops. It’s a great straight edge. Now, I have had it slip on me a couple of times. I now clamp both ends as an added safety measure.

I have a few different clamps like this. This one is by far the best.

It took me a little while to understand on how to mount my saw but once the light bulb in my head turned on it was easy. One of the clamps broke and sent Bora a picture of it and they sent me a new one right away. Good Customer Service!!!!!!!!!!

They may feel kind of cheap, but they function really well. A+

I like the Bora NGX clamp edge but was disappointed that it did not come with a tape to attach to the edge for the saw guide zero clearance cuts. Was very surprised to find that the plastic tape costs over $20.00. I bought this so that I wouldn’t have to separate my existing 50 inch clamp and extension. I only paid $150 for the 50inch clamp, 50inch extension, saw guide, 2-55″ tapes, and 2 clamps. Since I paid $59.94 for the 50″ clamp and will have to pay $20 for the tape guess I should have just bought 2 $149 packages and had a spare tape and saw guide.

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

NEVER A CROOKED CUT – THIS IS A WOODWORKERS MUST HAVE TOOL – THIS “BORA PORTAMATE” 50 INCH SAW GUIDE SYSTEM IS GREAT – THE CLAMP EDGE GUIDE HAS FIXED END CLAMP HEAD SO YOU JUST PLACE, ADJUST & CLAMP FROM ONE SIDE -YOU CAN RIP & CROSSCUT PLYWOOD WITH YOU CIRCULAR SAW – STRAIGHT EVERY TIME – BUILD WITH RIGID ALUMINUM FOR STRENGTH & ACCURACY – USED WITH THE “SAW PLATE” FOR PERFECT CUTS.

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.

This clamp will work well for long cuts as it will reach across a 48 inch width and It comes with an extension for a full 8 foot use. The clamp easily slides in the track and you can adjust pressure by careful placement. The clamps are only 3/4 inch thick so it works well with most stock.It also comes with a sled to mount your circular saw on. It is designed to hold most by simple adjustments. All of this can be a challenge to figure as the instructions are broken to simple drawings and no written text. There are also some clamps included which are designed for making long angle cuts.
