Whats the better product


Recommended Posts

So I was going to buy a nice table saw but I really dont have the space at the moment. So the alternative is use a straight edge and a circ saw.

Anyway I bought this thing http://www.lowes.com/ProductDisplay?partNumber=352335-23796-540950&langId=-1&storeId=10151&productId=3341574&catalogId=10051&cmRelshp=req&rel=nofollow&cId=PDIO1

But I am thinking that it was a bad choice. I haven't used it yet but the fact that it can only go to 50" makes it completely useless for long rips. Lowes also has http://www.lowes.com/ProductDisplay?partNumber=119887-1099-CG100&langId=-1&storeId=10151&productId=1006469&catalogId=10051&cmRelshp=req&rel=nofollow&cId=PDIO1 For half the price.

but for all that I could just buy a 8' pc of flat aluminum stock and some clamps a lot cheaper and get the same tool in the end. Hell I could probably buy two sticks of the aluminum and cut one into a couple smaller pcs to make short cuts easier to manage. And yes I am aware of the tools people make out of wood.

I would say the 100" ... but for smaller rips the 50" would work better. It would be kind of a hassle swinging a 100" long rail around when ripping smaller cuts lol.

And that's why I was just thinking that aluminum flat bar would trump them both. That clamping 50" on cost $40.00 and the 100" (which is essentially just two pcs of aluminum with a pc that you can bolt the two pcs together) cost $20.

The good thing about the 100" is the fact that it is made up of two 50" pcs, so essentially you get both a 50" tool and 100" tool for $20...wonder how much two 8' sticks of aluminum are?

Depending on how wide and how thick, Im sure it would probably come out just about even.
