BORA 50" NGX Clamp Edge Extension, Straight Cut Guide for Circular Saws | Add 50-Inches to Your NGX Clamp Edge, 544060, Black White

Good

I like the system overall, but I found myself needing an extension track. I ordered the track and it came in a reasonable amount of time. however Bora cheap out on me and did not include the Teflon chip guard strip that comes when you order the original set. That caught me offguard now here I am ready to make this cut and I’m afraid I’m gonna get tear out in that one section. Would be nice if there were some big bold letters that said you buy that separate.

Fits well with the clamp, straight lines if you square before you clamp it. Used it to build my first woodworking project, proficiency came quickly with this tool

A necessary addition to your workshop if you’re cutting large sheets (4x8) and want straight cuts. A bit pricing though.

It's a straight edge and with my original peice would clamp to 8 foot sheet. Ultimately I was cutting down 4x8 sheet of plywood to 5 inch x 8ft stripes. Would have brought a cheaper track saw as always having to add the width of circular saw got annoying for a large cutting project.

The straight edge came with the extra screws to secure it to secure it to the next piece except there’s no place attach it. No holes were drilled

Originally, I had some problems receiving the correct item and needed Amazon's help to straighten that out, but I do have the right clamp now (NGX 50" ) and it has been getting almost daily use on a current project.As others have mentioned, you have to take measurements on both ends before firmly clamping in place; you can't expect 90 degrees just from the small clamp edge... it's not a T-square. Also, to disengage and slide the clamping part to another position, you have to figure out to push the orange clamp part back towards the gray clamp part and the assembly then slides freely. It was confusing at first.One other thing, mine came with 'ruler numbers and increments' on the aluminum guide top like the WTX model, but it IS the NGX model. None of the product pictures show a ruler top, so I think that must be an upgrade BORA has made to this NGX version (nice improvement.. they need to update the pictures).Overall, the clamp is exactly what I expected except for the additional ruler markings, and am pleased. Other than the aluminum guide, the rest is made from plastic which gives it a cheap feeling, but it is very durable plastic. I don't expect it to break with normal usage. The 50" guide is usually all the length I need but it would be nice to have the extension, though too pricy for the few times I would use it.

It works. Sadly there were no instructions on how to attach it to the base NGX rail. Of course, on first glance it wouldn’t appear that instructions were needed since you should be able to just slide the two rails together. Unfortunately, there are two screws that secure the connection. There are no matching holes on the original 50” NGX rail. With some “eyeballing” and careful drilling it works but a simple template would have been nice. Beyond that, it works fine. Is secure on full 8’ panels.
