The extension adds a lot of weight. I'm wondering if it affects a table saw with wheels when moving the table saw around.

That was a concern of mine as well... It is fairly heavy but I haven't had issues moving it around.

I removed the existing side of the table on my Rigid 3650 and replaced it with the Bench Dog so there was no (or minimal) weight difference and I am able to wheel my saw around easily.

I have my old table saw mounted on a Grizzly base with wheels, and find it to not only NOT be a problem, but the router table/attachment works quite well.I am using an OLD Black and Decker router bought in the late 70s for which there was no mounting plate available.So, I drilled my own holes and then bought a new router for those times I want a hand held machine.

I ought this a couple years ago and I have a table saw with wheels and it did not affect anything. I put it to the right of the blade vs. the left as shown in the picture, so I didn't have to take the extenstion off. I really like this and it has worked perfectly.

It should not affect mobility. I removed the wheels that I had on the legs attached independently and placed the table saw into a HTC-2000 Adjustable Mobile Base. I have a Craftsman cast iron table saw and adding the cast iron router table added even more weight. If you currently have problems moving your saw without the router table attachment then you should plan on changing your mobile base system.

If u r referring to base that u can buy with the saw, yes it is high quality and plenty strong. Lowering the wheels is not a problem either. The saw is really heavy, so I doubt if u will move it once set, but to if u need to sometime the roller base will pay for itself.

Don, I'VE used this stand to hold 8foot long, 6X6 pressure treated pieces, using a Dewalt Sawzall. It wobbles, but the table vise hold the material. My vexation with the piece is that it was annoying to assemble, it wants to flop out and unfold when you carry it. And, it is not nearly as stable as the earlier models. It is a cheap price for a below average piece. Dave

Yes, but there are probably better solutions. The table as some movement side to side. Pushing material around your machine may result in some table movement and or vibration..

I own a battery-powered model (with no extension arm) that weighs 12 lbs. I am a man of 87, and I find the saw does everything I ask of it easily and safely. I especially like its ability to slice up branches once they are on the ground.

I don't think it would matter since it clamps down fairly tight and shouldn't move. I have used it on pieces less than 4 feet with no problem. The excess just juts out from the wood.

I also have a C12RSH. I purchased a cheaper miter table and the saw is unstable. Due to the center of gravity on the saw, I had to slide it forward so much, the rollers did not line up with the fence on the saw. Just want to verify this stand works OK with such a heavy saw. I appreicate your input.

Yes. I've had zero issues with it and I just used the saw to build a table. It works great, and the safety buttons are very easy to use.

The legs of the table saw don't sit over the wheels. The wheels are attached outside of a frame that has plates in the inside corners for the table legs to stand on. You can see these plates in the picture on the inside corners of the frame.

It's not that it's heavy. When fully extended the leverage given the extent of it means you need to move carefully and keep distance between your hands to control it. I do not lift it fully extended from horizontal, that would be a mistake. It is so sharp that cutting can proceed slowly and without jerking motions that would make it hard to control after a cut at its full extension. I am very happy and impressed with mine.

It is pretty stable, but will move during hand sawing if you use too much force.

I never noticed it got too heavy while using. It worked really nice no regrets buying.

I've never had the need to use the magnet for that type of weight. But I just do see it being used objects that heavy. I beleive the extension piece would give out too. It's great for a dropped tool or small piece of hardware. Nothing heavy-duty

I would say the saw by itself weighs no more than 60#..... buy yourself a good portable saw table to go with it.... I bought the Bosch, but I had to do some rigging to get the saw attached to the stand. used a piece of plywood to bolt to the stand, and then bolted the saw to the plywood.... it works great, ant the saw is awsome

I installed it on a low-end saw that I bought at a big-box store. It took some time, but if you have some mechanical ability you should be able to use it with any table where the table top is within the measurements shown. The end result was terrific.

Its the weight not the height of the ladder that is important. The extensions are heald in place by friction. I only put about 170 lbs on the ladder and had no problem.

So far I have used this vice for clamping almost any item needed except for sawing. I would think that its capabilities would (or could be) extended to light weight sawing; but vigorius of heavy duty sawing I would not count on it.
