Just plain JUNK |
| While my Bosch 1587 is quality made and the Bosch saw blades are the best I have used, the optional JA1003 Cutting Guide is a [X] piece of junk. As soon as I got it I pulled the set point out of its holder and one of the cheap plastic lock pins broke. I could make one better than this one. Also its made in China not the US or Germany! Also the instructions are printed in pictures on the cardboard package. There are no written instructions to give the novice usefull hints. If I only paid [X] for it I would say I got what I paid for. My advice is to look for a quality after market cutting guide and stay away from the Bosch. |

I agree with druziligaamazala The (...)thing is plastic!, and is worth about $2.00 and made in china !!! If this were way all BOSCH tools were made I would not have any .... save your money for a good aftermarket version |
The (...)thing is plastic! |
| Not only is it plastic, it is engraved with metric units of measure. I realize Bosch is a european sounding name, but if they are selling product in the USA they could at least warn you that this is a metric tool. If I wanted to learn the metric system, I would have asked to be born in Germany. If you commonly use inches, you will not enjoy using this accessory. Don't get me wrong, I really like plastic for toys and tupperwear. I think for the money this guide should be of a substantial metal construction. |
