"In this instance, the Makita track is not compatible with the Festool saw. The detail of the anti-tipping features doesn’t make for a comfortable fit. Since bevel cuts require great accuracy, if you have a Festool saw, it’s best to have Festool tracks if you will be making bevel cuts."
From here: https://www.obsessedwoodworking.com/is-the-makita-track-compatible-with-a-festool-track-saw/Yeah, thought about selling it and using the extra cash on a rail square. Ended up not using it on the weekend, so the plastic strip is intact. Will probably post it in the local carpenter/woodworking groups and see what happens.
Edit: And that Benchdogs one does look nice!

Is it that the makita saw fits on the festool rail, but the festool saw doesn’t fit on the makita rail?
I’d be tempted to punt the festool and get the makita when you can, I always envied the anti tip over groove on the makita!
I think the benchdogs rail square is highly regarded, but there’s loads out there now.
