Carl I have not tried one of these, but it looks like a cheaper alternative to a tracksaw. If most of your cuts are 50'' or less I think it would work .

Heres a previous thread. It's short but might help a little. LINK (https://sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?259587-Kreg-accu-cut)

I have one. I have only used it a couple of times. There is some slop in the track but it still seemed to cut a straight line. The vertical cut was canted a little. I checked my saw and it was at 90 degrees. I haven’t tracked down the reason yet. Overall it works good enough. I don’t need a track saw that often.

Thanks, I might give it a try

I have used their Rip Guide, it really needed a way to make a zero clearance for the saw blade. It worked well. You might look at the system from BORA it seems to be similar price range. I myself sold the rip guide and went with the TrueTrac system. Dan
