Note: This track saw does not come with any guide rails. You'll need to purchase compatible rails to use this saw as intended.

Owned this saw for a couple months now works great. Only downside is the cost, as the previous poster mentioned, this doesn't include rails, ends up costing quite a bit. One issue I'm pissed about is that their clamps were apparently designed very poorly and they had to pull them, seems like the re-design is going to take some time.

I bought the 50" Milwaukee track...just because.
I then bought the Wen 110" track for less than the Milwaukee 50. No difference in quality.
Go Wen for the track.

I like the Dewalt ones, they're basically one handed quick-clamps for your track

Good price but not in the ecosystem. Holding out for a makita.
Buy me this one and I'll trade you my Makita 36V with 4x 18V & a dual charger! Love it but I'd also love to consolidate to "team red" lol

The Massca track saw clamp is money as well.

Cool. But which one? The 40T? Genera purpose? I ask to determine if I need to pick up extra blades along with a track.

Oh wow, that is.. cheap compared to what the good Makita ones cost.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079JGGSNK They've been ~$40 lately. Same diameter blade, but different size arbor (20mm vs 15.9mm or 5/8").

The Makita ones have a very thin kerf which makes them efficient.. recommend trying to pursue the same with this Milwaukee or whatever other brand of track saw you may have.
Keep in mind with wider kerfs, you may be biting off more of your splinter guard, and going back to a thinner kerf blade might splinter more with less 'exit' edge support.

The Milwaukee saw handles the included blade fine. It hums right through oak. I know some thin kerf blades are susceptible to wavering/wobble/vibration, so I probably won't get a thinner blade for now. I don't think this is as big of a problem versus 10-12" blades, but I don't need to test it at this time.

If the one that you linked is the oem/default blade, it's a pretty thin one too at 0.063" vs the 0.057" Makita one. I've had great results with that makita blade cutting like a laser beam - and I'm in the habit of checking my corners with a machinist square.

Most of the other Makita blades offered are 0.73-0.87 - I grabbed an extra one with a different kerf/tooth profile be able to make nice flat-bottom score cuts, but I'm wary of using it because it's going to take more off my splinter guard.
