I ordered a Grizzly G7315 - Super Heavy-Duty Mobile Base the other day. I checked the box for no back order. I got a note from them yesterday. It is out of stock and not expected until Sept. I need a good mobile base for a table saw before then. Please offer some ideas or advice. I am open to suggestions. Thanks | | Views: 339 | |

I have been using this universal base under my Zipcode saw and my jointer for a couple of years now and they are great! Rolls effortlessly.  http://www.woodcraft.com/product.asp...&FamilyID=5114
(Just cut a piece of 3/4 plywood to your required size and bolt on the casters. Size it match your base requirements.)
They have gone up in price quite a bit though. (Got mine for about $40) 
The base from Rockler in Matt's reply looks like pretty good deal as well, if it will accommodate your saw.

I have used the HTc mobile base HTC -2000 on my 8"jointer and it's worked great. http://www.htcproductsinc.com/umb.html
For my Jet cabinet saw I used the Delta: http://www.westerntool.com/product.htm?pid=420435
for years and would recommend it if you have a cabinet saw with extension table. It's expensive, but I've used it for over 10 years now with no regrets..
Good Luck.

I'll second Canuck on that base from Woodcraft. I've got two of them. Had my tablesaw on one for a couple of years-now my planer, and a 6" jointer on the other. They both work quite well, just a scrap of 3/4" plywood and you are good to go. Woodcraft has a $10 off coupon right now as well (look in the "Found for sale/hot deals forum").
Good luck.

Thanks Matt for the suggestion, but that base is too small for my table saw. I am considering HTC - 3000 and the Woodcraft. Does anyone have any experience with the Shop Fox D2057? | |

Don't forget the Shop Fox version (probably same as Grizzly?). I have one on a Jet tablesaw and am very satisfied. I believe The Source in Mooresville has them with a North Carolina Woodworker discount.  | |

Wayne I have one like this for the jointer and it works great. It may be a bit more than some of the others but you cut the ply whatever size you need

Thanks What are the dimensions you need - i.e. the outer spacing of the saw feet? I have a delta mobile base from my jointer which I no longer need. Probably won't fit, but I'm willing to go measure it :>

Does anyone have any experience with the Shop Fox D2057? I have three Shop Fox D2057's - tablesaw, jointer, and band saw. I've had them for five years and they do the job quite well. They're not the smoothest rollers I've ever seen but they seem well built and have given me no problems. I would buy them again.
