BORA Saw Guides for Accurate, Straight Cutting

BORA saw guides are designed to improve cutting accuracy when using circular saws. They provide a stable reference edge that helps woodworkers achieve straight, repeatable cuts without the need for large stationary machinery.

These guides are commonly used for breaking down sheet goods, trimming solid timber, and making long rip or cross cuts with consistent results. By reducing blade wander and supporting the saw throughout the cut, saw guides help produce cleaner edges and improve overall efficiency.

BORA saw guides are valued for their portability and ease of setup, making them suitable for both workshop and on-site use. A variety of lengths allow them to suit a wide range of project sizes and materials.

Selecting the right saw guide involves considering compatibility with your saw, maximum cutting length, and the type of work being undertaken. Proper alignment and firm clamping are essential to achieve accurate, safe cuts.
