Onward and Upward

It’s Autumn in Boulder, Colorado - and the leaves aren’t the only things changing.
At Dash-Board® Portable Workshop, we’ve pushed our quality and innovation to yet another level.
We are excited to introduce the new Rip Stop, Rip Gauge™, and Outrigger. Have a look at our website and YouTube to check them out.
We’ve also redesigned and improved two of our best-selling products: the Track Stars and Guide Rail Brackets.
Stay tuned for our soon-to-be-released “ShortCut™”: a smaller Dash-Board® with the same, unmatched quality and accuracy that is built in to our full-sized Basic Bench.
We’ve worked continuously this year to iterate every aspect of our parts, process, and presentation. The result is a smoother user experience and more versatility than ever.
We are always happy to hear from our customers, and we thank you for your support as we continue rejecting mediocrity in the industry.
The best of the season from our families to yours,
Rob, Michael, and Stephen

Track saw crosscuts go out of square for three predictable reasons — and none of them are the saw. This post covers exactly why crosscuts miss the mark and how a mechanically fixed rail bracket system on an MFT table solves all three at the source.

Small angular errors don't cancel out — they stack. On a cabinet with dozens of joints, crosscuts that are off by even a fraction of a degree show up at assembly when fixing them means going back to the saw. This post covers how mechanical squaring with a track saw workbench eliminates the variable that causes the problem.

Many track saw crosscut errors are caused by guide rail movement, inconsistent references, or repeated manual squaring rather than the saw itself. This article explains how guide rail brackets create a fixed mechanical reference that keeps the rail perfectly square, enabling faster setup, repeatable dimensions, and consistently accurate cuts across every project.

Breaking down plywood with a track saw and a dedicated workbench is often safer, easier, and more accurate than using a table saw, especially in smaller shops or on job sites. This article explains how a track saw system paired with guide rails, fences, and workbench accessories simplifies sheet goods processing, improves cut quality, and enables fast, repeatable results without the space and handling challenges of a traditional table saw setup.

Rip cuts that are off by 1/32" don't just ruin one piece — they compound across an entire batch. This post covers how small-shop woodworkers can replace table saw ripping with a track saw workbench system that delivers the same fixed reference, without the 20-foot footprint.

Sloped floors, uneven subfloor, tight bays every location throws something different at your setup. This post walks through how to deploy a complete portable woodworking bench cutting station anywhere, with realistic setup times and a task-by-task configuration guide.
