First off you really need the extensions. They work well with two tables though. The problem is that while you can cut very long thin strips there is a minimum width that you cut across. The rails and extensions must rest on something. Yes you can put shims in but that gets to be old and really fussy fast.They are great for cutting up sheets of ply into shelves or a carcse. Very convenient and if setup right can be used for squaring.
If you break down sheet goods and have a Festool TS 55 EQ Plunge Cut Circular Saw, Festool TS 75 EQ Plunge Cut Circular Saw or even a Festool PS 300 EQ 6 Amp Jig Saw they are unsurpassed for convenience and accuracy!
Excellent just not super.
