Incredible! So, I've never used a track saw... How does the track not slide from side to side when you're making your 45.5 degree bevel cut along the edge of the board? I noticed there's no clamping or fastening the track to the board and it seems to just be laying on the board... oscillation and sliding of the track aren't an issue so you can get a nice consistent cut right along your chalk line? I definitely need a track saw... Can a typical skill saw be used as a track saw or do you have to buy a track saw that goes with a particular track?

@@garethheathcote4988 He's using Tight Bond 3 (the green label). It's the strongest of the 3 wood glues that Tight Bond makes and it's thinner and you have more time to work with it before it sets up than the other 2 Tight Bond wood glues. Also, because it's not as thick as the other two, it doesn't spew out of the mitered edges onto the work surface as much. And it holds extremely well once it sets up (after maybe 10 or 15 minutes).

When you stopped to clear the chips out of the hose it made me realize that's another advantage of the track saw. You can stop a cut and pick up where you left off. There's plenty of examples where you would want to stop a cut mid operation (specially when the blade is binding) and it's hard to pick it back up while still getting a clean cut.
