About John Morris & TrackSaw.net

Plan the whole cutting system

John Morris publishes TrackSaw.net to help woodworkers and DIY readers choose track saws, guide rails and the equipment around them. We cover sheet-goods breakdown, on-rail cutting capacity, corded and cordless options, compatible accessories and the cost of a complete setup.

A saw-only listing does not describe everything needed for your first cut. Our guides distinguish model generations, regional versions, blade requirements, guide-rail families, battery kits and dust connections. We explain documented tradeoffs rather than claiming one tool is best for every workshop.

Research, not invented testing

Our work is specification-based desk research. We use manufacturer manuals and product documentation, identify unclear or conflicting information, and separate published claims from editorial interpretation. We do not claim hands-on tests, professional woodworking credentials or laboratory results.

The five workshop tools help shortlist saws, estimate rail length, inspect blade listings, total your own setup quotes and estimate plywood strip yield. Their outputs cannot certify blade or rail compatibility, safe support, cut accuracy or suitability for a material. Check your exact operator manual and resolve uncertainties with the manufacturer.
