The Coolest Miter Saw Accessory YOU NEVER KNEW ABOUT Until Now! - Make perfect Miter cuts every time 

Does it retain that blade width until you change it so that every cut compensates for the blade width? I am surprised you didn't even mention this in the review. It would have been best to include the exact steps, show the cut, show repeat cuts, show with a tape measure the cuts are in fact accurate. I am also quite surprised that when I go check out the tool on the company website, there is not a single ounce of text or info about what the product is. It is a one page site with their logo and a signup field for your email address. It reads "Receive Exclusive Discount by signing up below" Says "Available for pre-order June 16." But that is it. No navigation on the site, nothing. Unless you made this video how would anyone know anything about the product? Not your fault. But how did you even know about it? You mention that an issue with a bevel and one would have to move to other side. It would have been great to see the steps for such a cut as well. I get that this tool will help you by not having to actually pull out the tape measure but after one measurement for repeat cuts, you slap a stop block and you are done. With this tool, I can roll up the piece and watch it show my length of cut, incorporate the blade width and I am good. But every cut after that I have to read the screen. Yeah, I got that part but then we have to see the cost of the product and determine is it really worth the cost? I could see this helping on a project where you have various cuts and don't want to have to keep pulling out the tape measure to mark your piece. But I have a feeling this is going to be pricey. The fact that you can pre-order for June 16 and the site does nothing, I mean nothing to explain what it is, makes me think this will be very pricey.

Robert Knowles he stated the cuts were accurate, checked with tape measures, lasers etc.

TheWaterbound07 As I said in my original reply we would have preferred to see so for ourselves. I would rather see then just rely on what someone says. In another post Tool Review answered someone and said this device can do millimeters when in fact that is not correct.

This is a failing. I change blades quite often, and in all probability I would forget to change the kerf allowance in this device. A stop block is much better, doesn't need batteries, and most importantly, once I have set it, it is super fast to slide the wood up to the block and make the cut. With this device you have to fiddle about getting it right every time. Sorry. Fail.

@@donepearce Just because it doesn't work for your work flow doesn't mean it's a fail. Not everyone cuts the same lengths over and over. Obviously when that's the case just lift the level and set a stop block. But when you have multiple cuts of random lengths this could be great!

I agree. Would have been nice to see a few cuts made, and THEN verified.

Exactly what I was thinking. He spent so much time dicking around with getting to 10", yet didn't cut any. I would suggest cutting 10 ALL at 10", line them up, and see how consistent they are.

Exactly my thought, where do you put your hand to clamp the wood in place, or the little clampy thing that normally attaches there ?

It doesn't look like it takes kerf into account.

It wasn't verified because it can't be accurate

Never a stupid question Tim. Thanks for the comment and feedback bro

Fair comment. Thanks for sharing

I agree this thing would just be aggravating especially if you wanted to try to make repeatable cuts yet sit there and slide it through get it down in just you stop blocks sometimes people engineer Products that are just useless then every time you wanted to put a board up there you would have to hold that thing up or slide it in from the other direction just to get it against your fence

Yea stop block has worked for me and I’d don’t need to worry about “seeing” it , I just wait for the board to stop then cut day or night. It’s very accurate as long as my original double check measurements are right on! So can see why a homeowner or weekend carpenter would like this, but a professional doing the same cut over and over on a large job the stop block would be the most accurate and cheapest way to go. Good review though!👍

Might be best for trim work, but some guy on Instagram said he used it to cut 200 studs for rough framing and said he will save a lot of money vs having to mark and measure each one. I think he is a shill as no production framer will mark and measure 200 studs and cut each one that way. Maybe for off size cripples over headers and fire blocking would work well

You read my mind. I was going to make the same comment.

Let me know how you like it Donald!

Why do you have to add the blade kerf to the measurement? Don't you just lien up your blade on the outside of the piece? I have never added a blade kerf to a cut.

Ryan - every cut is off by the thickness of the blade. I’m shocked they don’t have a button that can add various bladed thicknesses to calibrate fro your saw.

😷🍻🍺

FAMOUS AMOS! This was the tool I was talking about. Sorry it tool so long bro

Any time Mr. RICE!!!

I'm sure there is a way, but I did not try it

Exactly my thought... i guess if your finished piece is on the right side of the blade you would need to add the kerf

Hey Peter! You can enter your blade width into the device and it will automatically add in an offset to make sure the blade is compensated for!

@@REEKONTools nice

Reekon Tools THATS AWESOME. god. Need it. Now.

Yup, something isn’t adding up here as shown.

At the risk of sounding stupid and opening myself up for crude comments....what is the tape and pencil way? I've done tons of crown and baseboard trim, so can you explain it please?

You would only need to zero it out if you change the cut length. If it the same cut, you won't have to

OK, I did not see the part about the blade width being entered into the device so that would be a big help. Sorry.

LOL

Automatically adds it Bob. I put a pinned comment in the comment section

Hahaha, only three months late brother

Yep

Yeah absolutely bro

It looks fun, but I can't see any time saving as the process of running each board under the wheel would get old fast. For repeat cuts, a stop block is much quicker. I lay floors for a living and am always looking for more efficiency. I just don't see it here.

This was one tool review that I regret how it was done. I was only able to hold on to the tools for two weeks, but not allowed to post the review for a month. When I went back to complete the video, some of the videos accidentally got deleted, but was unable to to a re-take. It bothers me greatly

Yes sir

Yep

Very true lol

Thanks for the feedback Michael. I like hearing what others think

They would pay for something could build.

Not sure what their price will be on this. I placed their site link in the description though

September 26 and it is US$119 on the IndieGoGo site. Hope that helps?

Ya, how do you account for the blade? It's zero'd on the wrong side.

Na, it's set 1/8" off to account for it

Ok but who uses full kerf 1/8” blades?? Something doesn’t add up

@@ottawapop you program whatever the kerf is for the blade you are using. Change the blade, change the kerf measurement. After that, it allows for the Kerf so you get the length you want.

It does not act as a stop. You would have to watch the measurement each time

@@ToolReviewZone Or measure once with a tape measure, place it on the miter, line up to the blade and use a stop block. Then the other 19 pieces you just lay up on the saw and slide to the stop block and cut. Of course you can look at it another way. Get your stop block ready, use this tool, slide the wood in to get your measurement, the blade kerf will be compensated for. Setup the stop block on the first cut. The other 19 pieces of wood, just slide in up to the stop block. But then it would come down to how much this thing costs for straight cross cuts vs just using the tape measure that one time. Now like I said previously in another comment, I could see this coming in more handy for me when I have various cuts throughout the day. I can just measure what length I need for some off cut, walk up to the miter with this gadget and make the cut. I don't have to mark the piece first and line up on the blade. Now beveled cuts we did not see what the layout would look like nor did we see a single cut to see how accurate it really is. I think it is a missed opportunity to give it a good tryout.

Someone just left a comment that they will be $139, but if you sign up on their site for early release it will be $89

Yep, they only had cm on the prototypes but even then they showed 2 decimal places so you had all the mm you need. The Production model will have mm built in.

Yeah Z it's a new company. They are actually going to launch these in June

Brand new company. 2-10 people and just started in 2020 according to linkedIn. Here is a video from their youtube channel, one video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kqDhUzaSAmQ.html

We've made a few dozen of our Beta Units and they have been tested on 23 jobsites with more than 500 hours of use on them. We look forward to sharing more details, case studies, and demonstrations in the next few weeks!

Thanks Stan Da Man

@@ToolReviewZone you are more than welcome I'm always trying to help out you and the subs to get what you'll need to stay safe

@@stanleymcman9422 Thanks brother, and you are THE MAN!

Hahaha, I dont ship to Pakistan though bro

I’m so lost Vince! What are you saying?!

Vince is asking to trade logo stickers for their respective RU-vid channels. I'll send you one of mine for one of yours. Cross-promotion, you know.

Yep

@@ToolReviewZone It does not do millimetres at this time. It does centimetres and has to be converted. This was answered just 21 minutes ago at the Reekon video I linked to earlier. Reekon personally answered.

@@robertknowles3677 It will on the Production version because so many were asking

Pinnacle Services yeah and not showing price and details

I emailed them today saying that was an issue with people. Looks as if they updated the site

Not sure yet. I believe June they will have the price set

Yep @Ryan Thomas program it in and as long as you use that blade it allows for it.

Only if you are changing the length. If the cuts are the same length you wont have too

@@ToolReviewZone Why would you need to do that? Maybe I'm missing something, but the wheel appears to act as an encoder...'X' number of wheel revolutions per inch, which are shown on the screen...once the board is zeroed out against the blade kerf, varying lengths of cut shouldn't matter since the length is based on the number of wheel rotations. I'd be more concerned about saw vibrations causing the tool to shift slightly on the fence and give false readings. I'll just stick to my fence and stop block.

@@photog1529 I see how the wood is put up against the blade, however, how does the device actually know the "blade kerf"? I mean different blades can have different widths right? If I want to cut a 10 inch piece off a 2x4, I slide the 2x4 up to the blade, zero it out, then I lift the blade, slide the board through to 10 inchs, the device will register 10 inches. I then cut the piece, how does the piece come out to exactly 10 inches? I am missing that part of the blade kerf.

@@robertknowles3677 I assume when setting up the unit, you store the kerf width into the unit's memory and it automatically factors that dimension into the length.

Yeah buddy
