I'm a big fan of this guide myself! Mine unfortunately came with a strip that was cut too short so the zero clearance strips didn't meet where the rails connected. Milescraft sent me two replacement strips and now everything is perfect! I just ordered a new set of rails as well for the odd occasion where I need to cut longways down a sheet of plywood.
I wish they would of let me purchase the first set I had that had the flaw on them at a discount price so I could of been able to do the same. I’m waiting to see if they have a sale or a seconds sale but doesn’t look to happen any time soon. Still a great little track saw.
@@nicklavioletteiii2183 sadly they don’t, yet. That’s why I had to return the blemished ones. I asked they said no. I told them even Woodpecker tool has seconds sale. if the anodizing doesn’t come out correct. they will sell as second at discount price. They wouldn’t budge. No worries I still have my DIY homemade track saw guide I’ve done for 20 years with scrap wood, if I need to cut a sheet length wise I’ll use it.
@TheShackHome You have to kind of admire the stance though, if something not first quality standard makes it to you they'd rather replace it with something that does meet standard, but I definitely see what you're saying.
Thanks for the video. I just got this track, and am just waiting for a finer saw blade to arrive, so that I can put it to use. In the future I will likely need a replacement splinter guard, so if you could provide a link to where you got yours it would be very much appreciated. I search amazon for it, but no luck. Take care.
Check in the description below for links and more info on new edges and the track guide itself from MilesCraft.

@TheShackHome I don't know if they offer factory seconds or scratch/dent/blem items, but perhaps an email would clarify that for you.

Just go to Milescraft website there you click on the track saw and find the replacements. Hope this helps. Thank you for viewing.
