    Peep where and who much was it if you don't mind. That looks great.

    My support stand is a "HTC Portamate PM7000 Miter Saw Stand&Power Tool Work Center". I bought it for $260.00 shipping included to Belize. I am sure you can pick it up State-side for cheaper. I have limited room in the jungle when I am at my winter home, and I am a disabled Vet, so this is fantastic.

    I am really happy with it. It extends out, has movable rollers, power, light and vice. Storage compartment and wood holder. It also comes with clip-ons that you attach to your tools, and when you want to use them, just pick up the tool and clip it on. I completed a 22 hour carve on an 8ft board with not problem. Highly recommended.

    Yes. That makes for a very good mobile stand w/drawers setup. I have my CW sitting on something similar. Mine is a five-drawer, wheeled tool cabinet - that had belonged to my father in law, who passed away two years ago. It has a slightly recessed roof, which accommodates my CW perfectly. Had it not been for my having it, I would have bought the same one that you have.

    I am giving this one a go. Portamate PM 2650. I like it because of the adjustable material stands and the table top is 19 by 23.6 - holds the machine well. Only thing I did was add an extra bolt to the bracing for the table top to give it a little more security. Materials stands can be removed if you wish. Working well so far - will try to get some pics on my set up.

    Hello Chief,
    I have had this table four about 6 months now, I got mine at Woodcrafter in Houston.
    it works great.
    I scanned and e-mail Michael T. the cover off the instruction booklet so he could see how it looked.
    Happy Carving

    I use keter folding tables on both of my machines and I also use one for my dewalt planer.
    The only thing I added was a base with rollers.
