Regarding the same machine: solid, nice finish, everything falls naturally under the fingers, the grip is perfect. Monitoring of the cut is not made by laser but the lines sighting device on a transparent support is very effective. The power of the machine allows to see far ahead. For the moment I use the saw blade initially expected and the cuts are sharp. In terms of sawdust tank: it fulfills its role but imperfectly (I estimate about 30% of non collected in the tank sawdust); there is always that it is useful, not take up much space and easily emptied by a sliding side door. Also note that in the box there is also an adapter to connect a vacuum cleaner hose which must be more efficient ... As for the plastic guide rail: composed of two elements reachable by clips: good fixation. The history of the rubber lips positioned on the edge of rule have arrested a moment in the various reviews that I read, but all is well. We just well put the machine on the planned rail. So I already used this rail to cut beveled planks. It is useful. Certainly it is plastic but perfect for a casual tinkerer like me. ADDENDUM AFTER TWO WEEKS OF USE OF RAIL: The clip system which allows to fasten different parts (three are delivered) of the rail is fragile: in fact I broke the tip of the locking system of a rail without made the slightest false move ==> disappointed by the fragility of manufacturing this part. The only regret: Bosch does not provide specific storage box for this machine ==> we must be content with the original box.
