Q: What is this guide used for?
It's a straightedge for a circular saw, router or jigsaw, guiding long, accurate crosscuts while your bench supports the full length of the workpiece rather than an unsupported overhang.
05J5012 - Veritas 30" Power Tool Guide
Our low-profile 30" power tool guide fits across the width of most benches without an awkward overhang, making it easier to crosscut a long workpiece with the bench supporting the workpiece's length. It is also a manageable length for working with smaller-scale material.
The guide comes with a pair of 1" capacity clamps that can be positioned anywhere along its length. For clamping thicker materials, 2" capacity clamps are available separately.
Rubber expansion washers let you set the clamps to slide freely or with the amount of drag you desire.
If you need to cut longer stock, the optional 48" guide extension (sold separately) is a convenient accessory. The combined track segments give the guide a total length of 78".
The 12" long traveller, available separately, ensures straight cuts by preventing the tool from wandering away from the guide.
Also sold separately, the optional position stop is used with the traveller to limit non-through cuts, such as dadoes and rabbets.

It's a straightedge for a circular saw, router or jigsaw, guiding long, accurate crosscuts while your bench supports the full length of the workpiece rather than an unsupported overhang.
Yes, a pair of 1" capacity clamps ships with the Veritas 30" power tool guide, and they slide anywhere along its length to hold it in place on your stock.
Add the optional 48" extension to bring the total length to 78", enough for longer crosscuts than the base 30" guide alone can span.
Only if you're cutting dadoes, rabbets or other non-through cuts that need to stop partway across the workpiece; for straight-through crosscuts, the guide and traveller alone are enough.
