Excellent.
By Toolking
I recently built a set of extensions for my Dewalt 12" sliding mitre saw and i purchased this kit so i wouldn't have to use my tape measure at the saw station. The extensions are made from marine ply and give me eight foot to the left of the saw and six to the right. The track and stop kit arrived undamaged and i set about installing the kit on my extensions, the instruction were clear and easy to understand. Once i had the tracks mounted i zeroed in the cursors on the stops and after a few test cuts everything was as it should be.Just a few pointers for anyone thinking about buying this kit,(1) If you build your extensions from 3/4" ply as i did, you'll have to put a 16th of an inch shim behind the fence on your extensions because the rebate on the track is a full 3/4 of an inch. This is because 3/4 inch ply is actually 11/16" of an inch in thickness. This is something i only spotted when the tracks were mounted. If you don't shim the track back the track will stick out a 16th of an inch from the fence and any piece of stock higher than 2-1/4 inches will be 1/16" of an inch from the fence. This is a safety issue because the blade will pinch on the back of the cut and could cause kickback. Shimming the track is one way around this, using thicker ply and running it through a thicknesser until you have it 3/4" of an inch thick is another or use solid wood for the fences on your extensions.(2) The flip stop is prone to lateral movement when heavy stock is pushed against it, i either use the production stop for heavy stock or i hold the flip stop as i push the heavy stock against it.(3) The kit comes with four 2' pieces of track, i had to purchase another three pieces of 2' track for the right hand side of my saw. With hindsight i would have purchased at least one length of 4' track because no matter how carefully the individual pieces of track are mounted there will always be a slight offset from the end of one piece of track and the start of another. This can be overcome to some extent by placing the mounting screws as near as possible to the end of the track. The two foot pieces of track are better suited to short fences like on a drill pres table.

By Al Smith
I've been using this product on my custom-made mobile miter saw stand which supports my Ridgid 12" sliding miter saw. After building a few major projects with the Kreg precision fence and stop kit I can report that it works great and gives 1/32" accuracy without any problems. The flip-up stop is a bit too flexible to stand up to hard lateral pushes without some "give"--especially when you are handling big heavy pieces of wood. For those cuts I prefer the "production stop" which is much more resistant to lateral forces.I'd buy this product again and highly recommend it.

By Bobby Stanley
I purchased this system a few months ago. It works exactly as advertised. This is a very accurate and precise system if set up properly. I set mine up with about 11 foot to the left of the saw and 10 foot to the right.One complaint. The rails are not predrilled, they have little marks where you have to predrill them. I feel they could have already done that for the price of the aluminum tracks.
