I was looking at an entry level track saw or rail saw (not sure what is the best name) and I was eyeing the Evolution R185CCSX+ as it seems to be a interesting DIY option. The saw cost £90, the 2800mm tracks cost £77, but when I started checking the reviews of the track, it seems to be crap, not accurate. As I'm planning to start doing a lot of DYI and get more into woodwork, I was hoping to get something that is not crap, but also not expensive. Is there something decent around the £150-£250 mark for a saw + track of decent size or should I be aiming at a lot more?

have a look at Peter Millard reviews of tracksaws on youtube - reviews some cheap ones
quite a few posts here on cheap tracksaws , i'll see if i can find

my son-in-law has an evoloution table saw and mitre saw, and very pleased with them for DIY - BUT after a lot of reviews he went for the makita track saw - but £400+

some are quite old , but i think the same models still around
i just put tracksaw into the search bar

Yes, that's the price of an entry-level trade-spec machine, I'm afraid. I have the cordless version of same and wouldn't be without a plunging rail saw these days
