How to replace the splinter guard on your tracksaw tracks. This method works on Festool, Makita, and Triton Tracks. It may work on other brands but I'm not sure.
In this video, I show you how to

1) fully replace the splinter guard with a new splinter guard from Festool.
2) How to reposition your existing splinter guard so you can save some money.

UPDATE: Repositioning the old tape has held up well for over a month with no signs of failure
