About this deal

Single-piece design that self-squares to 90° with no adjustments needed (and therefore, no points of failure in the future) Make sure when you set the rail, the grip strips aren't causeing the rail to bind on the work surface. Accessory Mounting Holes: Tapped for M6 threads for compatibility with TSO Parallel Guide System and Angle Accessory NEW! A shallow undercut along the square's mating edge makes it less sensitive to minor dings and debris along the outer edge of the guide rail

I've run into this before (could have been the same rail,it has now been sprayed with red paint), the guys had not. They thought it was them. It wasn't. I don’t think you can ever completely trust a rail square as to me, there are so many tiny things you can do to affect it, over a distance.Two support tabs ensure maximum cutting accuracy, as the rail square and rail are well supported on the workpiece – preventing hanging and flex. That out of the way, where are you located? Asking because at times a second set of eyes helps. If you're near Colorado Springs or Northwest Indiana you're welcome to come by the shops and we'll see if we can help.

Yeah, this was my experience. I bought a Taiga rail square (since gone out of business I think) which came with calibration certificates up the wazoo, but I found that accuracy/repeatability just wasn’t there (was trying to make a couple of floor cabinet carcasses). I don’t think it was the fault of the particular square, I just don’t think they can be that accurate/repeatable for anything other than short cuts. Slide the rail square on to the rail and pull square with your thumb in the circular recess. Secure the rail to the square firmly in place, by gently tightening the thumbscrews. Hybrid design fits perfectly to all lengths of Festool, Makita, Triton, Evolution, Milwaukee (latest red version), Mafell, Bosch and DeWalt profile guide rails. Offering safe and perfectly straight power tool guidance, a splinter guard for splinter free sawing and a protective surface, all of our guide rails will allow you to achieve precise cuts without the need for rework.It’s too easy as a human to introduce errors I think. The slightest difference in the pressure you apply when seating the square can affect things greatly over that distance. Just before I left another cutting table was made. This meant more rails added to the mix. Well, one of them (a 1080) is off at the entry end by a few thousanths of and inch. Not a big deal when marking and droping the rail, but a nightmare when using the TSO square. Draw latch hook now features a resilient coating to grasp your guide rail and protect it from marring Our rail squares are compatible with a wide range of brands, including Festool, Mafell, Milwaukee, Bosch, Makita, Flex, Triton, and many more, making them suitable for 99 percent of guide rails.

Yeah, I seem to have a lot of issues with the little cam levers coming loose. When you engage them (at least on Makita rails this is) they don’t really have much travel as such, like you expect from a cam that comes in gradually. They’re just…on, or off. It’s a nice thing though. I love the little slide out tab that supports it on the work. I’ve yet to use any of the actual dog holes as I don’t use a dog system but it’s nice to have them there. The Taiga Rail Square is machined on the latest CNC equipment using 6082 aluminium, which is the highest strength aluminium in the 6000 series. 6082 aluminium is typically used in the construction of trusses, bridges and cranes – but due to its very low weight and incredible strength, this grade aluminium is also the ultimate material for manufacturing precision components. Two squares fit in a Systainer—see our Systainer Foam Insert and limited edition TSO Blue Systainer3 M 112 What sets our rail squares apart is our commitment to accuracy. Each square is meticulously calibrated on our CMM machine, ensuring 100 percent precision. You’ll receive a CMM report with every square, guaranteeing the utmost quality and accuracy for your woodworking needs.

I used to have a little Triton square which was ok but obviously nowhere near the same build quality. No need to measure and mark both ends, no clamping required and no wasted material from misaligned cuts! IF YOU WANT THIS ENGRAVED WITH YOUR NAME THEN THE ITEM IS NON/ RETURNABLE . UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT , 14 DAYS TO RETURN IT) NEW! Rapid attachment feature: simply insert the square at any point along the guide rail and clamp it in place—no need to slide it into the guide rail from one of the ends or remove hose deflectors, clamps, or other accessories occupying the guide rail T-slot Threaded M6 accessory mounting holes enable connection to the TSO Parallel Guide System and Angle Accessory

Previously I had made my own plywood square which has been incredibly accurate. I have attached to a Benchdogs fence to that one, allowing repeat cuts out to 1.2m but it is a bit cumbersome. With production secured, Wim also took the opportunity to redesign the rail square – developing the second generation ‘hybrid’ model, which was expected to be available from April 2021. The latest Taiga Hybrid Rail Square is compatible with most guide rail profiles available on the market – fitting perfectly to all lengths of Festool, Makita, Triton, Evolution, Mafell, Bosch, and even the DeWalt profile guide rails. The GRS-16 PE is much more than a guide rail square; it's the foundation of a broader system of TSO Products designed for interoperability. In fact, the GRS-16 PE serves as a connection method for the TSO Parallel Guide System. Once connected, you can repeatedly square and parallel rip multiple workpieces. Festool MFT/3 CompatibilityWithin this product range you will find a variety of different Guide Rails including the Guide Rails of up to 5000mm, Guide Rails with rows of holes, as well as a vast range of accessories and consumable materials.

It’s not what you expect to need to do on a square that costs so much but I have no pleasure in using it because of this. Does this all sound too easy?
