I think this is a new product from Kreg. The email says "Now Available"

I've never used a track saw, so I'd be interested in hearing the thoughts about this system
from those that have. Apparently you don't need clamps, it uses non-slip strips. I wonder how
well they work in saw-dusty conditions.

I wouldn't trust it without clamps. I noticed that it's only 4' long.
Is there a way of connecting them together. IMO, 4' isn't enough to
be useful. Dies it have a sacrificial edge? This is pretty
important.



Take a look ay the set of pictures on the site. It appears that this
comes as two short tracks to make up 4'. Also further down the page are
replacement splinter strips, so yes it has the sacrificial edge to set
up the cuts after making the initial pass.
