Product Review
There are lots of saw stands on the market, but this is the only one we've seen that can fold down without removing the saw. Then you just roll the whole assembly away on its solid rubber wheels. But if you do want to take the saw down, it only takes a couple of seconds to release it from the CamLock base. You can slide the saw all the way left or right if you need the outfeed support, too. While anyone would love this stand in the shop, it's at the jobsite that it rises to the occasionor lowers itselfon telescoping leveling legs that can accommodate up to six inches of surface difference, perfect for the homebuilder. It's lighter than you'd expect for a stand that will take on 500 pounds, too. Outfeed support reaches a nice 20-foot length. The CamLock base is universal and should fit any make of saw. Because of that and its fold-down ability, this stand gets our highest score.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I purchased this stand for my Bosch 4412. Assembly was unplesant, with lots of little parts and complex instructions. Much of this could have been done at the factory, but they apparently decided my time was worth less than theirs. The saw fits very nicely, and after 6 months, I have almost forgiven them for the assembly. The controls are very nice and tool free (though the tracks must be kept CLEAN and lubed with teflon spray). It has one adjustable leg, but if you work outside at all, you will still find yourself using scraps of wood on two other legs to keep it from wobbling. It is very strong and rigid, even with the arms fully extended. My one major objection (see, I said one, I have forgiven them now. This has been very cathartic!) is the legnth of the arms. They could have extended 12 extra inches each direction by just making the arm long as the stand. The stand really is much better than any others on the market. It is light and portable, and even has tiny little wheels for rolling over hard, even surfaces. It has made loading the monsterously heavy and ill balanced sliding saw a one man job (with breaks!) much better. The accessory extension stops are also very nice for cuts of the same legnth (like stair pickets). I added a little shim to the face of it so I can use it as a support extension wich helps for long, light trim and things like that. For those of us with more than one miter saw, an addational base can be purchased which makes switching between them a 60 second (no breaks) job. I hope this helps, and please, don't respond to it in your review. No one likes that!
