I like your reviews on stuff. I agree that spending the extra $25.00 is the way to go. Definitely more for your dollars. Can't wait for the portable CNC router video!

If you're cutting panels at repeated widths you might want to get the 1200mm (1160mm on the scale) rail extension set that screws in with the included rail joiners at the back end of the unit. As well as providing a longer edge to square the panels off against, there is an adjustable end stop for the material so you can do repeat cuts. Cheers

Very helpful, thank you!! The price has gone up but so has the Woodpeckers so I think I will pick up the Festool. Can't believe a Festool ANYTHING is cheaper than another brand, lol.

That little tightening nut for the angle should be able to unscrew off and be replaced with a big handle for holding it as you cut?

But you have to have the festool track saw to use it, so it really costs like $1000.

Thanks for this post. This Festool angle tool looks like a good value for general work. But as you say, it depends on what you're doing. For truly reliable (and therefore repeatable) 90 degree cuts, you can't beat the precision of a TSO dedicated guide rail square. TSO could justifiably cop the Stabila motto: "Trust. Never adjust." Comparing the differences in accuracy and potential applications of these two styles of guide rail squares is the same as comparing a bevel square to a try square. Both have their place.

@@donavanshomes It's all about matching weapons to most commonly encountered targets. I rarely rely on my track saw for protractor-measured angles for the type of finish work I do. My jobsite sawing arsenal relies on: 1) non-sliding 12" compound miter saw (I feel that its lack of sliding function minimizes lateral play, a common source of annoying inaccuracies; 2) compact 10" table saw with rack-and-pinion fence (I accept limited 24" max rip capacity as fair trade-off for light weight and compact size - Dewalt DW745); and 3) Festool track saw TS55 REQ with multiple tracks under 55" long, TSO auto-aligning rail connectors, TSO GRS-16PE guide rail square, and TSO 30" parallel guides. If I did more closed stringer stair work, I'd opt for a 12" slider; if I cut larger panels regularly, I'd bring longer guide rails to omit need and uncertainty of end-joining my 55" rails; if I worked heavier timbers much, I'd go with TS75 for power and depth of cut; etc. etc. A guy needs to sit down and have a talk with himself sometimes, to distinguish what you need to handle the work in front of you, rather than to do the type of work you wish you had. (Don't ask how I know...:-)

My question is it worth the money to have this one extra compared to the comes with the Festool MFT /3 table that included one not quit as nice as this model ?

I don’t this the one on my MFT I will recently took it off and put it in a drawer. I use this one on the job mainly and have the MFT in the shop so not sure if I can answer that for you.

Still waiting for mine to arrive! Like you, I ordered only the square, but now I wish I had ordered the kit along with the extension set for repeatable widths. I have the Insta-Square (same as yours) for doing 90's which works extremely well, but wanted to expand my capabilities for angled cuts. The WP version is quite expensive, quite heavy, and has too many moving small parts for use on a job site in my opinion.

@@donavanshomes Thanks for the response. I figured it out. I was sliding the rib into the wrong slot. My first thought on the Angle Stop is that it takes too long to set up. I had to do a lot of measurements to get a straight cut. And it was still off after my first cut. I had to use a 26” Woodpecker Precision Square for accuracy.

You never get 90 degree with this tool)) you can try to adjust it for 90 degree, but as soon as you change the angle and put it again on 90 degree, its not gonna be 90.

Another world record for Festool: crappy finish but still the cheapest in a line up ... ((funny enough, Peter Millard uploaded a video yesterday where he found the same when comparing track hinges: the Festool hinge was cheaper and crappier than the Dashboard and Benchdog hinges)).
