fwiw - i still couldn't end up getting a straight edge with this. I have a WEN track saw now that I love. Trimmed the bottom of a door recently, any newb coulda used it.

No, you have yourself a home made straight edge - not track saw. Track saws hold the saw in place laterally in an actual track (hence the name "track saw") so you basically can't cut off the straight...

It depends what you want to do. This is the rip cut version because it can cut as long as you need, assuming you don't need to cut more than 24 inches from the edge.
In contract, the other Kreg...

I just made one of these with spare scrap wood. I used it to trim some solid wood doors as well as foam board. It worked great in both applications.

The Accu-cut is for cross cutting sheet goods. The Rip Cut is for ripping length wise. It can only cut to the length of the aluminum guide which is 24" I think. So, if you want to cut a 24" (or less)...

The problem is, the 2x4 stock will warp one way or another, especially if stored outside.

For ripping a 4x8 sheet lengthwise, this will cut any width you need. If you want a 25" wide piece, just cut off 23". :)

I bought this a while back, it seems like a very niche tool I will use once every few years. It is ok, but if you have a table saw you're probably better off.

what you are describing is a guide which is easy to make. A track is a system that prevents the saw from deviating from its left and its right while the guide only restraints on one side.

I do give this a thumbs up because it is a good deal. HOWEVER, I ONLY use mine on pieces that are big. I don't think it's worth the time to set up if you've only got one or two cuts.

the guide is for cutting straight not for repeatability, but you can combine it w/ some spacers to achieve that.
