Dusty Traveler –
I can’t say enough about this saw and Evolution’s customer service. I purchased the RC185 CCSX track saw specifically to make straight and accurate cuts on 4′ x 8′ sheets of 1/2″ MDF and plywood. I used the saw in conjunction with the Wen 36053 6″ Quick Release Track Saw Clamps and the Wen CT 9502 100-Inch Track Saw Guide Rail. The blade supplied with the saw did an excellent job cutting the material. The Wen guide rail comes in two 50-inch sections which makes it a fine tool for cutting full sheets of 4′ x 8′ stock. The saw comes with a 3-section, 40-inch guide rail, which is good for small jobs, and is compatible with the Wen guide rail. The plunge guide gives good depth control, and the compass gives accurate settings for bevel cuts. The saw’s cut material collection port does a fair job of collecting kerf dust when attached to my Shop-Vac. The 10-foot power cord is a blessing. The user manual, supplied with the saw, provided me everything I needed to set up, calibrate, and use this saw. Lots of pictures and attention to detail. Upon first use I had a problem with the locking rear thumb lever not tightening. I emailed Evolution’s customer service. They responded the following day, followed by a phone call. The defective part was identified and the following morning I received the replacement part by FedEx priority service. That’s excellent customer service! This saw is solid and I highly recommend it!

Wow! I was somewhat skeptical of the product as I am one who generally believed that the more expensive products are almost always better. However, the Evolution track saw has allowed me, a layman woodworker and carpenter, to cut down large sheet goods with accuracy and clean cuts without buying expensive table or panel saws. I have successfully made a king-sized bed frame, a queen-sized bed frame from furniture grade plywood for a fraction of the cost of a comparable custom or store bought frame. I am very, very pleased with the saw and may purchase more power tools from Evolution.

The saw is amazing/ it doesn’t plunge(you can adjust the depth of cut, but you need three hands to plunge it like a festool), but what you give up in plunge you gain in a 7.25″ blade vs a 6.5″ blade. It comes with a 3 piece 40-inch track that is not useful in the states/ Powertec makes a great 110″ track set on amazon also. The two together are the best track saw value on the planet. Plus this cuts metal also need I say more ?
Michelle Mitchell –
Great compliment to the Evolution track saw with one objection: the aluminum track is very thin and the connectors are steel and can bend or crack the track if overtightened.The track itself is very accurate and easy to use. It is a great product at a fraction of the cost of Feestool, Dewalt, or Milwaukee.

The build quality on this saw is great, predominantly metal, apart from the adjustment knobs. Forward and aft track tightening knobs work very well, allowing tight fit to the track. I have used the Dewalt track saw a considerable amount and the build quality here feels very similar.From my perspective, apart from build quality, one thing that makes this saw such a win in my book is the ability to use both 20mm arbor and traditional 5/8″ arbor meaning that this saw unlike the Dewalt and many others, is not strictly bound to expensive replacement blades. $38 for the dewalt fine finish blade compared to $11 for a diablo. Included in the box is the arbor washer for both sizes.The included track is obviously going to not be the best, it comes in three short pieces. I found that the track needed to be deburred and some adhesive needed to be removed before they fit well. Still, not great, but at the cost of the saw, it is almost free. In retrospect, I would buy the saw only, save a few bucks and buy the WEN track saw guides.

The track is easy to assemble. The clamps work great. I use a makita track saw with it. I get very good cuts with the track. Like the carry bag keeps it clean.
