This may be the best circular saw guide video on KZbin. I have avoided those that only provided one reference side for the saw because I have demonstrated to myself that I am fully capable of wandering away from the edge guide when working in less than ideal conditions. Your captured guide prevents people like me from messing up. Thanks!

[@Solidworksmaster]

You are very welcome

Made a version of this, used mdf instead, sealed it. Fitted a mitre bar underneath for clamping. It works extremely well.

Excelente guía!. Felicitaciones

I love the concept of making your own guide track as this seems like a much more affordable option. It appears you are confused with what pallet wood is. Pallet wood comes from the wood base of shipping containers, is rough cut, has nail marks in it, and is usually only 3 or 4 inches wide. Personally, I would use plywood so you have less chance of the jig warping over time, if you want it to be reusable. Thanks for making the video!

thanks for your comment my friend!

bonjour de france. très beau travail et merci pour le partage. thank you for sharing and congratulations for your good and beautiful work. hello from france

[@drewb.5419]

Brilliant! Have the saw plugged in and the blade guard completely disengaged! Instructional video for cutting ones thumbs off but at least you’ll end up with a circular saw track :)

[@andrewbrown1123]

Letting go of the saw while still spinning in the track and I love the safety flip flops.

[@mtheory3]

Such a good idea. If you have a second miter bar you can attach it to a router on the other side

[@brucemccready682]

you have really good pallet wood in your country. Stuff I have seen here in Australia is very thin and just breaks apart when you try to do anything with it. You did a very good job well done.

[@Solidworksmaster]

i though in Australia you would have a lots option for woods not only pallet , btw , you can use MDF or plywood instead, but i think MDF/plywood not a good choice for this project, thanks for watching my friend!

[@Julcorp]

I don't think it's pallet wood. Doesn't look like it...

[@brucemccready682]

@@Julcorp No it sure doesnt. The pallets I have seen here have been pretty much unusable for anything, The stuff in the video I would buy from a hardware store. looks perfect.

[@Julcorp]

@@brucemccready682 Yup, same here. And for pallet wood to look good, it requires a loooot of hard work

[@sylviaaugustine8849]

I was a little worried about installing the blade after reading a couple of reviews. But it was amazingly easy. Took about 1 minute. Works great kzbin.infoUgkxjpBI8OOeUXib_iT7UomCrQ-uauwZJ62c . Cuts easily and is perfect for pocket cuts I needed to make for replacing some old deck boards.

[@jacquescalame6421]

Bonjour et merci pour cette vidéo. Projet très intéressant.

[@MrBigVK]

VERY well done concept. Just a few things to think about : 1) Use plywood, will remain stable over time. 2) Use your router to make the dado and move the edge guide to make it a snug fit and don't glue the miter channel. Aluminum will not adhere to PBA glue. 3) Square your end block with the now placed miter gauge, NOT the board. Your cuts will be square to the miter so should your end block.

This has got to be the simplest circular saw guide video on KZbin. Can you add an extension to catch the saw and stopper so the cut ends would be clean

[@restyfernandez1877]

Pretty nice

[@Solidworksmaster]

Glad you think so!

[@jscottbell227]

Like the design overall and the desire to use adhesive and screws for the T-Track but wood glue will not provide any real benefit bonding aluminum or any metal to wood. Wood glue has to soak into the wood fibers to bond wood to wood. That glue is not going to soak into metal. Polyurethane or some types of super glue is what you should use.

[@otallono]

Well I think it adds extra material to provide a tighter fit, not necessarily to bond the two. Doesn't hurt either way I'm sure.

[@Danomite99]

Nice track saw guide. -this video could have been less than 5min tho. Making the grooved channel def wouldn’t be my first choice. Dado cut on the ol’table saw in one pass 👍

[@h10aus]

One of the best track saw videos I seen so far....its handy you have threaded holes on on circular saw base which line up with the mitre bar....by the way what is the model number of your Makita saw?

[@h10aus]

any chance of confirming the model number of your Makita saw Sir?

[@ihackiphone974]

Hello , what is the thickness of the wood panel?

[@braoooscar]

Y con chalas... trabajando 😂😂😂

[@drdoolittlefishhobbyist6055]

So you used the saw to cut out the grove and then you realise you had a router lol.

[@TheDiversia]

Можно было доску пильнуть вставить направляющую а под неё фанеру нашурупить. Зачем так мучаться

[@josevencatareddy5084]

Adding something to MrBigVK `s Tips . If you mesure a piece of wood to be cut , you should mesure from the inside ( where your machine sits and not from outside as you did , cause then you will have the blade thikness less from your measurement.

工夫してレールを作ったと思ったら，いきなり端を切り落として，調整なされている。････って，そもそもレールをここまでしゃかりきになって作ることなの？上下の合板3枚とレールとを糊付けしたら終わりでは？

[@edblough4134]

You made two assumptions. One that saw bade was parallel to the blade. The cross piece you made 90 degrees to the board before you cut the board the first time. Should have cut the board then made the cross piece 90 to the cut.

[@hectoribarra3124]

It would be nice if you say something

[@franciscobuenaventura8922]

Humaba proseso. Pwede naman nakadiin lang sa gilid nung rail iiscrew sa board tapos yung circular saw diretso cut na dun sa wood board kabilaan 90degrees at 45 degrees... Pwede ng gamitin

[@TheBikerDodge]

Not pallet wood pal.

[@codenamemars]

speed up x2

[@marcdevriendt8419]

Two disadvantages of this project : - The thickness of the wood which reduces the the depth capacity of the saw significantly - The fact that you need to screw the metal piece on your saw each time you want to use it with the guide. This is a waste of time, a risk of loosing pieces and it can also affect the precision over time. I do not understand why you use wood glue on the aluminium rail. This is useless and won't work.

[@otallono]

Then why did you click on the video at all? There are so many other videos showing saw guides that don't lock in.. of course to have one that does lock in, requires it to become a standalone track saw.. that's the point! I see no disadvantages. Who cares about the glue, you can't even see it or know it's there, good to know you just like to complain about things for the sake of complaining. Glue can be used for reasons other than bonding, believe it or not.

[@marcdevriendt8419]

@@otallono Well.... I clicked on the video ... to watch it and get some interesting ideas. What else would I have clicked on it for? OK for the screw-on metal piece if you want to dedicate your saw for the guide only but still, the thickness of the wood remains a disadvantage, especially for people wo don't own a huge saw like yours. I didn't notice it at first but I fully agree with the other people who pinpointed the danger of deactivating the blade guard. Security should never be disabled.

[@jellyg.8961]

- Most of this homemade track saw guides are meant to be used for cutting panels which are less than one inch thick. Almost all circular saws these days are designed to cut up to two inches thick materials. Even if the board where the saw will glide is thick there will be plenty of depth capacity for the saw to cut panels below. These guides by design are not supposed to be used for thick materials. - you need to screw the metal piece if you don't use the saw for other purposes. However to address the loose of precision over time by screwing in and out the metal track you can simply use a precision square to check the piece against the saw plate and against the track on the guide. All these guides are better to be used with a dedicated circular saw, not one you use for other things. One thing this design,which is very good and simple by the way, doesn't address is the flexing of the metal plate of the saw. When you are cutting panels sometimes they are still wet or they are more dense in some areas so you have to press the saw more to keep it going. That will make it flex, most of the time to the side of the motor and will make the cut not perfectly straight (90 degrees). That can be eliminated with another board placed below where the motor will slide, that will make the saw fixed in depth and won't flex.

[@clifficus]

@Bryan, you nailed it perfectly and also in your previous comment, people just don’t get it, the ‘T’ track is in a perfectly tight trench and locked in by screws, as you say the added benefit of the glue is to dry hard and fill up any gaps, I personally think it’s one of the best I’ve seen, only thing I’d add is to run a candle up and down the ‘T’ track as a lubricant, but we’ll said😃👍
