Bora NGX rip guide at work guiding a circular saw through plywood.
Bora Tool has added an NGX rip guide to its cutting guide lineup.
“Our customers and how they work are our number one priority. With the rip guide, we wanted to deliver on everything they asked for – stability, balance when starting and ending their cut, and tool-free saw mounting,” said Rod Bonham, product manager at Bora Tool.
Compatible with most left or right-handed circular saws, the rip guide makes cuts up to 24 inches, or a half sheet of plywood, and has tool-free saw mounting.
With imperial and metric measurement markings, “the rip guide makes it quick and easy to accurately rip or cross-cut sheet goods and dimensional lumber,” said the company.
“Whether users need to make one, or a series of repeated cuts,” said Bora Tool, “the durable aluminum twin rail design prevents racking and misalignment, while the oversized ergonomic handle provides ultimate control.”
The rip guide’s revolutionary tool-free clamping mechanism allows for easy snap-in saw mounting – fitting both left and right-handed circular saws. The portable size offers an easy setup, said the firm.
“We achieved all those things and more, like the micro-adjusting saw plate that locks in with just a flip of the locking tab,” said Bonham.
