    Harbor Freight T-Track

    Anyone have any experience with this? http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=94964

    The price looks good... What am I missing?

    Nothing, as far as I know. I have the rockler version but this stuff is a lot cheaper. I will measure the Rockler dimensions and get back to you. I am not sure on that 1/2" dimension but otherwise the HF version looks to be the same stuff.

        The only drawback that I can see is that it's not available at their retail stores. Of course, if you don't have a HF retail store close by then thats not a drawback at all is it?

          Rockler deal is like $11 for 4' track with about 8-10 pieces of knobs and T-bolts.
          Most T-Knobs are worth at least .75 to $1 and the bolts are around $1 if bought individually.

          So HF 2' track at $4 or 4' for $8 is not that great a deal. Really bad at list price of $6/2' or $12 for 4Ft.

            True enough, if you compare the Rockler "deal". Right now, though, that package is available only at the list price of $21.99. The track only is $7.99 for the 2' length.

              HF T-Track intersection is a whole bunch cheaper at $5 v. $15 at Rockler.

                I saw this when making an order and for $4 took a chance. It is great! I have the Rockler T-track and it is identical!
