BORA PM-4000 Universal Mitre Saw Stand – Quick-Release Mounts

THE BORA PORTAMATE. FANTASTIIC VALUE FOR THE PRICE AND I FOUND IT SIMPLE TO ASSEMBLE. ONLY PROBLEM THAT I HAD WAS WITH THE SWIVEL TABLE AS AT FIRST IT DID NOT LOCK EVENLY WITH THE LOCKING LEVERS, BUT I SOLVED THAT WITH DOING A 180DEG WITH THE TABLE TOP WHICH SOLVED THE PROBLEM. STURDY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT EXCEPT THAT THE LOCKING LEVERS TO LOCK THE SWIVEL TABLE IN PLACE ARE PLASTIC...REALLY? THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE FROM METAL, SO THAT IS MY MAIN WORRY...WHAT HAPPENS IF THESE FLIMSY PLASTIC LOCKING LEVERS BREAK? I USE AN EINHELL TC-SM2534/1 DUAL DRAG MITRE SAW AND I LIKE HOW COMPACT IT ALL IS WHEN FOLDED. JUST ROLLS AGAINST THE WALL OUT OF THE WAY. SAW IS ROTATED UNDERNEATH FOR STORAGE. WHEN SAW IS FOLDED UNDERNEATH IT IS GREAT TO HAVE THE TABLE TOP AVAILABLE FOR OTHER PROJECTS AS WELL. SIDE ARMS EASILY ADJUST AND IF YOU CHANGE SAWS, WILL ONLY TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO INSTALL NEW SAW AND ADJUST THE ARMS FOR THE CORRECT HEIGHT FOR THE NEW SAW. ALSO FANTASTIC THAT WITH THE SIDE ARMS EXTENDED, GIVES 7 FEET OF SUPPORT FOR THE WOOD. MY ONLY CRITICISM IS TO SEE BORA USE METAL LOCKING LEVERS FOR ROTATING TABLE INSTEAD OF PLASTIC. APART FROM THAT, EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS TABLE IS WELL DESIGNED, SOLID, STURDY AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE USING IT WITH MY EINHELL MITRE SAW.

Being tall myself, this saw stand stood out as being one of the tallest working platforms. Good quality item at a really good price. Extending arms work well. I have no regrets buying this product, probably should have got it sooner.

Its good a little flimsy and could be a bit stronger but value,portability and saves working on you knees its worth every penny.

Great sturdy stand, well built, to last a lifetime.

Very pleased with this. Easy to construct and very solid.

Good strong bit of kit

Heavy duty - should last and saves space in the garage/workshop

Very good

Miter saw was sitting on a table, not bolted down, not a good setup. So was in the market for a reasonably-priced miter saw stand with outriggers to support the wood being cut. The BORA universal miter saw stand is well-designed. The legs fold down into place and lock well. The mounting system for the saw is well-thought-out and easy to install. The outriggers are adequate from a usage perspective and can extend to a total of around 8 feet or so from side to side. The manual could use a bit better detail. It wasn't clear if the mounting platforms should be set on the stand first and then the saw mounted to it. As it turned out, it was way easier to attach the mounting arms to the saw and then attach the saw to the table. We didn't need them, but mounting adapters and the appropriate bolts are included in case your saw's mounting bolts aren't in a rectangular pattern, a nice touch. The finish seems to be applied well and the stand feels very sturdy. We don't intend to move it now that it is set up, but it seems very easy to remove the saw (by squeezing a couple of levers on the mounting arms) and fold up the legs into a small and light package for transport. Overall, the Bora stand is a nicely-made product at a very reasonable price relative to other products in the market.

very good and shipping very fastè

I bought this to mount a 12" Rigid compound miter saw, replacing the normal "saw horse" style miter stand that had 4 wide folding legs due to limited storage space, and to be able to use it as a work surface when nots sawing. In all honesty, I'd never pay this much for something I could make myself, but I just didn't have time with current projects pending. 1) Assembly. This was a real PITA. The flip top has very narrow clearances against the side panels - too wide and the locking levers won't catch the flip top, too narrow, and it doesn't spin/catches. There are a dozen small bolts on two cross pieces at the base that control the overall tension/squareness at the top, it took quite a while to shimmy pieces around to provide a stable top - and even so, I have to squeeze one corner together to get the locks to work. Make sure you mount your saw AS FAR TO THE REAR AS POSSIBLE - the side wing elevators are centered, but most saws have a fence that's on the front 1/3 of the overall saw depth, so the saw has to go as far as possible to catch the elevators width. 2) Parts quality. Excellent to poor, a mixed bag. The sheet metal work is fantastic, I just don't understand why some parts are plastic. The locking lever, and catches on the flip top, as well as the adjustment mounts system for the side elevators are plastic - I'm not convinced they'll last the life of the (expensive) system. 3) Use - I've gone through a few sessions of having to unpack and repack for storage. When "deployed" it's a LUXARY - the ample wing space supports boards and provides a work surface to catch misc. pencils, squares, notepads, off cuts, etc. When collapsed, the cross bar/handle does not slide up easily for me (goes back to the overall squareness of the sides). The pins are under alot of tension, and you'd need a second person to push them both in to be able to lift the handle - so you have to push one, shimmy 1/8 ", go to the other and repeat, then yank it up to have full use of the handle. The unit has to be tilted FAR back to the person to get the saw's mass over the wheels - it rolls nicely, but there should be a reinforced "kick plate" on the bottom rear - I'm a larger person, and if you just pull the handle back, the unit will roll towards you, unless you have wheel chalks or you push it forward with your foot. The balance point is precarious with the high center of gravity! Also note that the "cubed" storage shape is too wide to fit through many doors. Overall it was a good purchase, way more than I thought I'd spend on a miter stand (actually almost 2x the price of my reconditioned saw). I hope the plastic parts hold up, and it really is a nice workstation when all is said and done. I plan on building in some on-board storage in the base, as there's room there, and maybe figure out a mobile shroud to help with dust collection.

I didn't think i needed a stand for my little 8 inch miter saw !!! Man was I wrong. After a little bolt adjustment, the saw being on the smaller side, fits the mounts. A bonus... you can still use the saw without taking it off the mounts. The mounts with their rubber feet give your saw a wider and more stable foot print . Well made, solid, great price, easy to use and carry. Installing and removing the saw from the stand is easy. If your looking for a stand... this is the one

Super Teil. Werde es als Tisch für Dickenhobel verwenden.
