Expensive, but Worth It!, January 11, 2001

I purchased one of these bandsaw stands from Amazon.com. They are expensive, but well worth it. The quality is all Milwaukee, which stands alone. It is a very heavy cast stand which stays put when you load it with pipe, angle iron, etc. On long pieces, you must use a support stand, naturally. It will make your bandsaw blades last much longer because of its ability to make straight cuts without binding the blade. The only thing that would make it better would be the addition of a vise or clamp to enable 45 degree cuts. The stand makes repetitive cuts a snap and dead-on accurate.

Pricey, but worth it, April 13, 2008

Samurai Dave (Ventura, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Milwaukee 48-08-0260 Band Saw Table (Tools & Home Improvement)

After I purchased the Milwaukee bandsaw, I realized that most of the cuts I wanted were true 90s. Trying to get consistent true cuts by hand is frustrating, especially when you are creating a lot of expensive scrap metal in the process! Now I just secure my Milwaukee band saw in the arm and I'm good to go.

When you first receive it, you need to get it adjusted for a true 90. After it is set, you can take the band saw off and reattach later, no adjustments needed.

The only thing that would make it better if it could also cut 45 degree cuts as easily. (I've made a jig to hold the stock for 45s.) Or, having a variable degree setting (like a miter saw) would be AWESOME! ;-)

I like the table and it makes for perfect cuts with the saw. You must set up the saw to be at 90 degrees to the vise and square to the flat part of the table.Use a machinists square to set it up. To me, this is the only way to use a saw like the Milwaukee.
