Terrible experience with manufacturer [Posted on 2006-05-08] I originally ordered this product on January 22, 2006. After three notices that this product would be delayed from the manufacturer I finally received notice that it had been shipped and would arrive on or about May 5, nearly four months after placing the order.
When the package finally arrived, surprise, surprise the order was incomplete. I received the platform only, none of the hardware, wheels, etc. I am now waiting for Amazon to contact HTC to get me the rest of the materials.
As an aside, when Amazon informs you of a delay on an item you are given the option to approve the delay or cancel the order. Before opting to cancel I decided to check with another major tool supplier to see how fast they could get the item.
The other supplier told me that they are discontinuing their "association" with HTC because of their poor customer service which includes shipping and completing orders. So I decided rather than start over again I would let this order take its course. Shame on me.
Great portable Base for the scroll Saw. [Posted on 2007-03-04] I received the base quickly and all the parts were included.
I own many different mobile bases for my tools and this one is build well compared to the others. The metal base is welded together so all you have to do is bolt on the solid rubber wheels and place the stand on it. It is easy to move and has 3 different locking points to keep it from moving when you want to use it. The Dewalt stand into it nicely. The only possible negative is that the levels that lock the wheels in thick molded plastic. I would recommend this base to anyone that uses the Dewalt scroll saw.
A Life Saver [Posted on 2007-03-27] I read one review that complained about shipping problems with Amazon. I under the frustration but that has nothing to do with the quality or usefulness of this stand.
I purchased a DeWalt DW788 about a year ago. My shop is small so when I use this saw I have to move it. I considered several solutions and this was one of them. When Amazon ran free 2 day shipping I sprang for the stand. It arrived in short order. Everything I needed was there,. Assembly was a snap although the instructions appeared to be universal and for no stand that looked like this one. The basic stamd is one piece and when I opened the parts packet and looked at the choices, I had the stand rolling in about 3 minutes. Pretty much a no brainer. The stand is heavy duty and seems to be very sturdy when the saw is on it. I had some concern about the triangular shape not being stable but The worry sas for nothing. The stand is a heavy dutry unit with adequate size wheels and rolls easily. The working end of the saw is the 2 legged end so everything is very stable. I can now easily move my saw out of the way and I am extremely pleased. It was a good decision for me and so far has worked well. Wish I had bought it sooner.
Thumbs Up [Posted on 2007-05-13] The assembly instructions were useless but once I figured out how to put it together (which wasn't all that hard)I am very pleased with how easy it is to move my saw now.
