BORA
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about BORA from 3G Electric.
What materials are BORA clamp-edge guides made of, and what tools are they compatible with?
BORA clamp-edge guides are constructed from aluminum, providing a rigid, lightweight reference surface. They are compatible with circular saws, jigsaws, and routers, allowing straight cuts or guided routing along the edge. The clamp mechanism secures the guide to the workpiece without additional hardware, and the aluminum body resists warping under typical workshop conditions.
Are BORA extension rails compatible with mobile bases for table saws?
Yes, BORA extension rails (model PM-3036, 37-inch length) are designed to be mobile base compatible. They can be mounted to table saws that are installed on BORA mobile bases, providing extended support for larger workpieces while maintaining the ability to move the saw assembly. The rails integrate with the base's mounting pattern without requiring custom adapters.
What is the maximum overall height of BORA clamp-edge guide model 546050?
The BORA clamp-edge guide model 546050 has an overall height of 57 inches. This dimension refers to the length of the guide rail, which provides a long reference edge for cutting or routing operations on large panels or sheets. The aluminum construction keeps the guide manageable for single-person setup despite its length.
Can BORA pocket hole jigs be used with different screw sizes?
BORA pocket hole jigs (models BR-A170201 and BR-A170301) are universal designs that accommodate standard pocket hole screws. The jig includes adjustable depth settings and drill guides that align with common screw lengths used in joinery. They do not require proprietary screws, allowing integration with existing fastener inventories.
What is the footprint of BORA table saw bases, and which tools do they support?
BORA table saw bases (models PM-1050 and PM-1000) have a 19-inch footprint and are compatible with band saws, drill presses, jointers, and table saws. The base includes adjustable mounting brackets to fit various machine chassis, and the mobile design features locking casters for stability during operation. The 19-inch width accommodates most benchtop and stationary tools in that size class.
Does BORA offer a deluxe track clamp set for circular saws?
Yes, BORA offers a deluxe set (model 544550) that includes a track clamp and aluminum guide rail. The set has an overall height of 60 inches and a 3 3/4-inch overall height for the clamp mechanism. It is designed for use with circular saws, providing a straight cutting guide with quick-attach clamping for repetitive cuts.
