I need to make a sheet ripping guide for a circular saw - I made one from MDF, but the edge of the MDF is not straight, even through it's uncut.
I'm thinking of bolting a 1" box section aluminium tube as a fence - is that going to be straight, or are even machine metal things a bit bendy?
Get some UHMW sheeting; really slippery, heavy plastic that is often used for guides.
