Thursday, April 28, 2011 Bosch T1B Port Folding Miter Saw Stand Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am semi-retired so I have the time to research purchases very thoroughly. I settled on this after much research. It is a compact 46" long with extensions removed, and just fits in the back of my little Tracker. Very sturdy all steal construction--only the knobs are plastic. I could put my 66 lb. radial arm saw on it, if I wanted to. It accommodates saws with three point mounting like my Hitachi. It is under 50# and much lighter with extensions and mounts removed. I like the fact that the extensions are coaxial so the supports don't tilt in different direction like those that are mounted one forward and one rear. One square tube actually fits inside of the other and is slightly smaller. You can shift the saw on the rails easily, so while the extensions only span just over 8', you can get about 56" on each side of the blade (not both sides at once, but how often do you need that?) giving you an effective span of 112". The Bosch version of this stand doesn't seem to be widely available anymore. It looks like they have switched to the Track Rack. I feel this is less glitzy but is superior functionally. You can still get the same stand under Bosch's partner brand (Skil) for much less, but it is a national chain store exclusive.
