Ok, I have read all of the people supporting track saw posts and even still have never had any interest in owning one even if they were free let alone how expensive the festool is. I have always thought the one thing I would use a track saw for is for jointing one edge of an 8 or 10 foot board and then making one pass on the jointer to make sure everything is trued up as opposed to now where jointing a long board like that with my jointer is a long, arduous and not very easy task and some times not as accurate as I would like it to be. Now that there are some cheaper options out there I could actually see myself getting one of the lesser saws and mainly using it for this purpose. If I do get one maybe someday the track saw bug will bite me and I will use it for other stuff. my question is how do you track saw guys get any kind of repeatability when making matching panels. After 15 years of doing this stuff I learned that repeatability is the most important thing in wood working. Even if your inaccurate as long as it is repeatable there is usually a work around but I have yet find a work around for panels that are different widths and lengths. I have never been able to measure something,put a mark down and hope I put the mark down exactly where I put it on the other panel and then lined up my straight edge hoping I put the straight edge exactly on the mark, that is now varying in thickness and probably running at some sort of an angle. Then if I try and use a square to make the mark straighter and more consistent I have to figure out where to hold the square to make up for the thickness of the pencil, the angle of the pencil, and the thickness of the mark I want to make. I have seen the marking knives and while that seems like it would be a better solution it still has many of the same flaws. How are you guys doing it and what am I missing.
