Vent: dropped $220 on a track saw track that didn't even fit my saw
I grabbed a 55 inch track for my circular saw at the woodworking show in Columbus last month because the guy said it fits "most saws," and my base plate is about 3/8 inch too wide for the groove. Now it's sitting in my shop as a $220 paperweight and the return window closed 4 days ago. Did anyone else get burned by the "universal fit" thing, or am I the only one who measures their plate after the fact?
