Universal is right! [Posted on 2003-12-15] I purchased this stand for my belt/disc sander and it fits perfectly. I also discovered it is just right for my bench top drill press so I purchased another. Nice and sturdy with convenient storage underneath.
universal stand for Delta band saw [Posted on 2005-08-31] The catalog said the stand was for the model Delta band saw that my husband owns (BS100) but it did not have holes located in the appropriate positions so it could not be bolted down. We were only able to utilize it after he drilled his own holes to make it fit.
Built like a jack stand. [Posted on 2006-12-20] This stand is rock solid and will easily support several hundred pounds of weight. There is absolutely no flex or give in this stand. Assembly takes about 10 minutes using 16 bolts. Lower shelf has a raised lip so tools and parts won't roll off. The top is heavy gauge steel about 1/8 inch thick. The bottom leg protectors are of plastic and fit very secure. Each of these protectors offer a hole for anchor attachment to the floor.
This stand impressed me enough to buy another without second thought.
Some problems. [Posted on 2008-02-20] I bought this to mount a Delta drill press. It really is too low for this purpose. It is designed for a shorter person I think. If you are 5'7" then the height might be perfect for you, but for a taller person, it will seem way too low. It may be a good height for other things like a band saw. Hard to tell. Anyway, this is the same complaint I had with the Delta Grinder stand that came with the package deal. These products seem to be sized for short people and have no adjustment built in to make them acceptable for taller people. I will probably build a floor platform to raise it up.
The next bad surprise was that although the top is loaded with numerous bolt holes for different tools to be mounted to it, there was no set of holes for my Delta benchtop drill press. Very strange! I wound up having to drill my own holes. If it is not compatible with one of their most popular products, then I wouldn't expect it to be compatible with anything. This way you are on notice to expect to have to drill some holes, and if not, then you lucked out.
I'm giving this 1 star more than the Delta grinder stand because here I could simply drill more holes, but with the grinder stand, the top plate is way too small for the Delta grinder and I have to fabricate an adaptor plate.
The price is too high for what you get, but this was the same complaint I had as well for the grinder stand. I think that Delta makes these for a few dollars (it is only sheet metal and angle iron with some bolts) and the rest is markup so they make a nice profit off the accessories they sell. Nothing wrong with that, but keep it in mind that when you are shopping for a stand, that there may be less expensive options that work just as well if not better than this stand.
Great work stand [Posted on 2008-08-05] This turned out to be a very sturdy stand. Good thick, strong metal and a set of hole patterns on the top that should match up with anything.
