As the title says. I just bought a track saw and was enjoying the ease of breaking down sheet goods until I realized that the last 20″ of my 102″ track are bowed 1/8″. The 59″ track is dead nuts at least. I could understand if the track was bent up-and-down but not bowed side-to-side. A problem with the extrusion, perhaps?

The nearest power tool service center is 2 hours away and customer service isn’t available until Monday. We’ll see what they say.

Any update?

Both my 102″ came with a vertical bow in them so I managed to straighten them out. I cut one of them down to a couple different sizes to allow for more versatility similar to Festool.

I got it exchanged. Amazon was quick with processing the order and the new track is dead straight.
