Pros & Cons
Pros
Scrap 3/4 ply is aplenty for me and for the relatively low price of this unit i didn't think i could go wrong. Works very well with a older delta 10 contractor table saw. The one band-saw pictured is a very heavy cast-iron beast from the 1940s.
There are 2 tiny neoprene spacers (washers) for each caster wheel. That way they're already in place when you slide the axle bolts thru the casters and you won't have to try to squeeze your finger into a 1/4 space to hold a loose spacer in place. This... Read More

Packaging/appearance
If one aligns the holes in the plates and the brackets the parts fit fine without grinding

Get the above tap youll need it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
They are nicely powder coated but no one applied mask to the holes when they coated them so the threads are clogged with fused powder coating making it near impossible to screw the sandwich plates on to the ply
