Crikey! The idiot proof rail joining mechanism on the Mafell is definitely an advantage (although I will confess to slightly preferring the festool rails in use).

The connection on the Festool is definitely pretty good but honestly, it’s still prone to 2-3mm deflection at the centre over a 2.5m span.
Batch cutting sheet goods with the parallel guides is great and massively speeds up the breaking down process but having to check the centre for each cuts takes time.
Not anymore :)

The tolerance on the Mafell rails is better, that wide flat joining strip keeps them much straighter.

At £230, I couldn’t pass it up. FS 3000/2
No more constant alignment checks of two 1400 when breaking down sheet material.
It’s a big boy!
