Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-06-01 Summary: Dewalt Circular Saw Fence ... What can I say, its a rip fence. It is a good fit and works as expected. What would make it even better, if it was an included accessary with the saw. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-27 Summary: Best rip fence I've ever owned ... Works great with your DeWalt. Very solid. If you've got the saw you need this. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-10-18 Summary: Nice "portable" fence ... If you're like me, you have a bit of a problem following a long chalk line down a piece of wood. Assuming your edge is straight to begin with, this is a very nice option to clamping a fence down to your work. This fence is also absolutely awesome for hanging doors...you know...where you have to take off that 1/4" or 1/2" to fit it into the frame? I highly recommend adding this to your circular saw case. You'll use it. ...more

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-10 Summary: Instructions are a little vague but the guide itself is fantastic ... One other reviewer pointed out that the instructions are unclear when it comes to which side of the saw takes which rail during assembly and I completely agree. Once I figured it out though the fence itself is very sturdy and very accurate. I like that the fence hooks onto the back rail (giving two points of locking) and increases reliability/accuracy. Also the fact that the table on the saw is pre-drilled for the fence is a heavy bonus. All in all a very well made product. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-07-22 Summary: Jet Bandsaw Rip Fence an OK 5 stars ... I purchased this instead of the blue high price non-Jet model because it hooks at the back of the fence rail as well as on the front. Took about an hour to install, the only hitch make sure the brace that holds the front rail on, is mounted on the front side of the table, not the back as the instructions kind of indicate. Its not whiz bang, gee golly but it works and its accurate. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-02-08 Summary: jet band saw fence modified for ridgid band saw ... Since Ridgid discontinued their rip fence, i searched for other alternitives. Saw a review about this fence and its use on a ridgid and purchased it. Everything bolts right on to the saw. However the fence guide itself has to be reduced in length by about 1 inch and then a new hole was needed to be drilled to allow for the back rail guide. Once that was done normal adjustments more set and i was ready to work. Modification took approx. half hour to 45 min. with a drill press and metal cut off saw and basic precision ...more

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-19 Summary: GREAT PRODUCT FOR THE MONEY ... Well folks, being an avid leather worker, metal worker, glass worker, and wood worker - I am pretty familiar with tools...and their gadgets. So let me say that this little "gadget" is a must for your jig saw. Can you use other items to help cut straight lines in wood? (Like a long piece of wood with 2 finishing nails). Yes you can. But this is so much easier and cleaner - and acurate to boot. And if you want to cut nice circles, you cannot go wrong with this gadget. Go ahead, purchase it. Add it to your jig saw tool ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-12-11 Summary: Milwaukee 49-22-4250 Jig Saw Rip and Circle Guide ... I bought this fence to use with my Dewalt DC330 18V cordless jig saw, since Dewalt doesn't make a fence/circle cutting accessory available for any of their jig saws. The guide itself is a perfect fit and even fits in the slots of the Dewalt storage case. The only minor issue is that the little wing nut that comes with it that's used to secure it to a Milwaukee jig saw shoe is too small for the threaded hole in the Dewalt's shoe, so you just need to use your own M6 X 10mm screw to secure it. Not a big deal. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-27 Summary: Works as advertised ... If you have a Milwaukee jig saw - this is a must have attachment. Durable and accurate - not much more to say than that. Actually this is one of the reasons that I purchased the Milwaukee 6268-21 jig saw over the comparable Bosch 1590 - theirs is made of plastic and breaks. I'm glad I gave the Milwaukee a try - it is a better saw in many ways. ...more

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-21 Summary: Cuttin' butter ... You don't realize you are cutting until you are done! I use primarily Ash & Walnut in my shop and this blade does a superior job in my miter saw. Have not tried in my table saw but will definitely look to Freud when I need a new blade. Oh and a great price at Amazon! ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-03-02 Summary: Great Blade Great Price ... Sometimes you may think the more you pay the better the product but in saw blades that is not always true. I have paid major bucks for a high priced saw blade, want mention name here, but the Freud blades are less expense and do a markably better job cutting that the more expense blade.I just had to try the big buck blade one time and it does not mesaure up to the Freud blades I have. Save your money and look at the Freuds when it is time to buy saw blades. Rickf178 ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-04-06 Summary: Rip Capabilities of a combo blade ... This blade replaced a 24 tooth exclusive rip blade (Freud also, in the same price range). I can tell no significant difference in the quality and effort needed to rip maple. And it doesn't splinter cross grain plywood badly. Seems a good value. ...more
