I just picked up a set of the subject guides today and cut a few tubes. All the tubes came out with very nice ends. I would recommend this product. There's a video on the Apogee website on how to use them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ic4Cd0rY4EI&feature=player_embedded

The cutting guides are very useful! I use them so much that I actually wore out my first set from erroneous cuts.

Great product, use them all the time. You can also use them to align your centering rings, just slide the centering ring up to the guide and glue the opposite side. Remove the guide and glue the other side of the ring.

Good idea!

I have a set and I like them very much. I like the way they lock on the body tube without crushing it.

I agree. Those cutting guides are very useful, and work well.
