You do have to be pretty careful with it, double checking your marks etc. I even found that the reflection of the mark in a steel rule was useful to check that I was setting up the fence the right distance from the mark to put the saw blade where I wanted it. If you can be arsed with that though I found I could cut to within a mm or so over the length of an 8ft board.

@ffm - yeah, this is what i've done previously for kitchen fronts etc., but i'm about to embark on a couple of projects which will need a lot of dryfitting so it feels like having something i cut long and straight with would be good. I've always seemed eff up using another straight piece to run against - but i suspect thats me rather than the technique.
@stevo_com @pryally- those seem like good options right.
