1.0 out of 5 stars Just plain JUNK, October 18, 2002

By	Lance J Manville (Kendall, NY USA) - See all my reviews

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Makes quick work of cutting strips and circles, June 27, 2000

By	Kevin Mann (Berkeley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A very useful accessory if you need to cut strips off a sheet of plywood with your jigsaw. Also good for cutting circles. Like other Bosch accessories, it fits their jigsaw perfectly. Also, it snaps into a holder in the blue plastic case that came with my barrel grip saw. My only complaint would be too much plastic. I'd be happier with an all metal unit that would stand up a little better under rough usage.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cuts circles with you jig saw?, June 20, 2005

By	P. Hanley (NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As others have said, it's plastic and metal. Although it works ok as a rip fence, I can't figure out how to get this thing to lie flat when trying to use it to cut circles with my Bosch 1587 jig saw. This is the only reason I purchased it...and it doesn't work.
