Milescraft 1403 Universal Saw Guide for Circular and Jig Saws Rip Guide Extends 14in Cuts Circles up to 24in

👍

Haven't used yet. Seem good

Perfect 4 products

This does NOT work as described for cutting 6” to 8” circles. It causes the jigsaw blade to bend in as it goes resulting in the radius becoming smaller as you go with the blade ultimately bending or breaking, which is dangerous in itself. I tried 4 cuts, making many adjustments as I went to try to get it to work. Seems it would work for straight cuts. I went back to cutting them by hand and did just fine. This tool does not make the job easier with circles.

This guide proved to be sufficient for helping me cut straight cuts with my circular saw. Unlike more expensive systems, you must really take your time. Its a little flimsy but its easy to attach your saw and it does a good job keeping it locked in place. It's far more affordable than its primary competitor's brand and it still functions the same. Overall it's a decent alternative to using a table saw. All the long cuts you see in the pictures were made using this.

I used this to rip 2x10’s down to a standard width for a deck that had a beam underneath, and the height of the joists was important to me. My only complaint is that the red part of the guide bar is not quickly reversible, to allow it to be on either the left or right side of the saw. Also, the instructions lead you to configure it for the right side, which limits your rips to about 8 inches, and places your saw away from the rip. I took the screws out of the red part and reversed it, to allow the guide bar to be on the left side, which increases the rip width to about 13 inches, and places the saw over the top of the rip, which is more stable for trimming 2x10’s. The pictures show my guide bar on the left.

I specifically picked this because it was labeled as universal so I could use with my jigsaw and skill saw. It’s clear adding the skill saw function was an after thought. The plastic wing nuts and double sided screws to lock the guide onto the saw aren’t reliable and don’t give a tight enough fit to trust. The saw was able to easily shift not only giving a bad cut, but exposing the user to potential harm when it unexpectedly shifts away from the guide. I haven’t used it for the jigsaw yet but because it will sit in the middle of the device it will probably be more secure. The included instructions leave a lot To be desired on proper setup and use, I wasn’t able to find any setup/demo videos that Boone online either.

It was worthy having it!
