Just before I left another cutting table was made. This meant more rails added to the mix. Well, one of them (a 1080) is off at the entry end by a few thousanths of and inch. Not a big deal when marking and droping the rail, but a nightmare when using the TSO square.
Offering safe and perfectly straight power tool guidance, a splinter guard for splinter free sawing and a protective surface, all of our guide rails will allow you to achieve precise cuts without the need for rework. Does this all sound too easy? Believe me, a huge amount of thought and precision engineering has gone into making the Taiga Rail Square. Wim Pauwels is the Finnish founder and brainchild of Taiga Tools. Obsessed with detail and accuracy, Wim has reworked and improved upon a number of existing tool accessories used in conjunction with established brands, believing that users of the tools deserve more robust and accurate attachments for the equipment they have invested in. This is no different in the case of the Taiga Precision Rail Square. Aluminium blanks ready to be milled by CNC

Hybrid design fits perfectly to all lengths of Festool, Makita, Triton, Evolution, Milwaukee (latest red version), Mafell, Bosch and DeWalt profile guide rails. Consequently, the slightest vibration such as using the saw, or putting the rail against the wall temporarily between cuts, will very often cause them to come loose and the rail can slide off onto the floor, or sometimes I’m all set up ready to make the cut and I notice one is loose.
Previously I had made my own plywood square which has been incredibly accurate. I have attached to a Benchdogs fence to that one, allowing repeat cuts out to 1.2m but it is a bit cumbersome. People are only really going to comment on what they’ve got as I double many people will have bought/used more than one option

I don’t think you can ever completely trust a rail square as to me, there are so many tiny things you can do to affect it, over a distance. No need to measure and mark both ends, no clamping required and no wasted material from misaligned cuts!
Our rail squares are compatible with a wide range of brands, including Festool, Mafell, Milwaukee, Bosch, Makita, Flex, Triton, and many more, making them suitable for 99 percent of guide rails. I used to have a little Triton square which was ok but obviously nowhere near the same build quality.
Power Tool Support Package
It’s too easy as a human to introduce errors I think. The slightest difference in the pressure you apply when seating the square can affect things greatly over that distance. Two support tabs ensure maximum cutting accuracy, as the rail square and rail are well supported on the workpiece – preventing hanging and flex. With production secured, Wim also took the opportunity to redesign the rail square – developing the second generation ‘hybrid’ model, which was expected to be available from April 2021. The latest Taiga Hybrid Rail Square is compatible with most guide rail profiles available on the market – fitting perfectly to all lengths of Festool, Makita, Triton, Evolution, Mafell, Bosch, and even the DeWalt profile guide rails. Draw latch hook now features a resilient coating to grasp your guide rail and protect it from marring
It’s not what you expect to need to do on a square that costs so much but I have no pleasure in using it because of this. It’s a nice thing though. I love the little slide out tab that supports it on the work. I’ve yet to use any of the actual dog holes as I don’t use a dog system but it’s nice to have them there.
