Kreg Adaptive Cutting System Review
George VondriskaDescription
Kreg’s System
Kreg’s Adaptive Cutting System consists of a saw, track, table, and accessories that help you set up and make your cuts. The saw has on board dust collection, and anti-chipping devices that improve cut quality. The table system makes it easy to make cuts perpendicular to an edge, or make angled cuts.
Making Cuts
Use the system by sliding your material under the track and getting it correctly positioned. You can position parts by measuring and marking on the piece, or by using the table accessories that Kreg provides. Both approaches work fine. The system works equally well for cutting sheet stock and solid wood.
And?
Spoiler alert. This system works great and makes it easy to cut all the parts you need for building cabinets; from case pieces to face frame parts.
More About Cabinet Making
Once you master the basics of cabinet making you’ve opened the door to creating book cases, vanities, shop or kitchen cabinets, and more. The procedures for these projects are very similar, and easily transfer from one project to the next.

How does this saw work with Walnut and other hardwoods?
I'm very interested in replacing my 50 year old Craftsman table saw, with its zero safety features, with either a SawStop table saw, or this adaptive cutting system. The ACS is interesting from a standpoint of cost and space (just a weekend hobbiest) - my only hesitation is in watching the video on the setup and usage, i wonder how difficult to get those two independent gauges the same and not be off by 1/16th of an inch so that the cut is not truly square. I wish there was one thing to lock it to get square and not 2. Or is it actually easier that it looks?
How do you keep from cutting the support table? It seems the table would be cut to unuseability in a short period of time.
Are you able to change the blade to different tooth count.
