pricey accessory with awkward installation [Posted on 2003-02-11] This is a pricey accessory for the DeWalt DW746 table saw that can be omitted. I was disappointed in the cumbersome and awkward installation. This outfeed table needs to be redesigned with a more quick and easy attachment method. DeWalt should consider offering a wider version of the outfeed table that matches the full width of the tabletop with extension wings. Although disappointed with this product, I ended up keeping it and cannibalizing the hardware to build my own custom outfeed table.
Table has no hinges [Posted on 2003-05-21] Any basic table saw that has an outfeed table should have hinges to fold down for storage. This table has none. Spend you money on building your own.
4 years of use [Posted on 2004-10-11] I have owned a Dewalt table saw with this extension for 4 years. The fibre board surface curved and sagged even with the steel stiffener underneath resulting in the workpiece only being supported partially. The leg is flimsy and can move in and out making the top surface move up and down. Not a design for the long run.
poor top covering [Posted on 2004-12-31] While the fit with the rest of the saw (I have all the other options as well) is good, for the life of me, I can't figure out what DeWalt was thinking when they put the top covering on this table extension. The basic idea of an outfeed table is to support longer materials so they slide through the blade more easily and with less binding. The very first piece of rough wood I ran through the saw tore through the flimsy covering, rendering it useless. I wound up covering the top with high density plastic to get a nonbinding surface. Now the rest of the covering is detaching from the table, so I will have to replace the surface again. My recommendation: if you buy this, plan on immediately resolving the issue with the top or you will regret it later.
Not big enough.... [Posted on 2005-06-19] Your outfeed table should be at least as large as the main table of the saw. This one seems quite small to me. Also it takes up floor space and only serves one purpose. I built an outfeed table a little wider than the table of the saw, with storage below, and a router table insert built in to the top. Makes more sense in a small shop where you have to optimize the use of all your space. I used 3/4 in plywood for a subbase and covered it with 1/4 hardboard. When the hardboard gets messed up (glue, dings and dents) its easy to unscrew that piece and replace it with a new one. Cheap too, I figure I have about $50 in the table and an hour of my time. Can't recommend this extension table.
