3.0 out of 5 stars Good idea badly made with inadequate hardware, June 6, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: (2 box set) HTC HOR-1038U 37-Inch x 31-Inch Table Saw Outfeed Roller Table (Tools & Home Improvement)

While the idea behind this device is sound its manufacture needs improvement. The one I have has none of its rollers in quite the same plane - some deviate 1/4" - which neccessitates constant attention to make large workpieces track straight. The bracket that attaches to the saw was warped and needed alot of filing and shimming before the roller table would aline with the saw table. Included screws are easy to break and are best replaced when possible or tightened very gently when not. Some additional washers were needed where helical lockwashers are used over slots.

If you're the sort who owns a cabinet saw and have the time, you can probably make a better (and cheaper) outfeed table yourself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Roller table works well and installation was fairly straight, March 7, 2002

This review is from: (2 box set) HTC HOR-1038U 37-Inch x 31-Inch Table Saw Outfeed Roller Table (Tools & Home Improvement)

I am the owner of a small one man shop. I have limited space so many of my larger tools are on mobile bases. I wanted the outfeed rollers to support 4X8 3/4" plywood and mdf that I use to make cabinets. The instructions/diagrams in the installation instructions were straight foward. Although, if you are putting the roller on a unisaw you have to move the on/off box - but instructions are in the installation manual. I put the rollers on a grizzly table saw. You will want to remove the table top to get to the inside of the saw. I took advantage of when the table top was off and did machine maintence(i.e. adjust belt tension, clean and lubricate.) You will be drilling eight holes in the back of the cabinet. A template is supplied for the top four holes. The bottom holes are drilled with the support bracket mounted. I installed the roller myself in about three hours(including the machine maintence), but it would be easier to install with a helper. You have to tap the mounting bracket around a bit to find level. The adjustment screw on the bottom of the support arm is a hassel to get to once installed. I cut off an open-ended wrench to 4" in length to get to it for adjustment(rated 4 rather than 5 for this reason). Other than that it is working great and I am very happy with it. The only other advice that I would have is that if you don't like playing with stuff a little to get it to work well you may not be happy with the rollers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great concept/lacking precision, October 18, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: (2 box set) HTC HOR-1038U 37-Inch x 31-Inch Table Saw Outfeed Roller Table (Tools & Home Improvement)

The design and flexability of this outfeed roller table is great. The only complaint I have is that (as others have written) the roller plane tolerance is not very accurate. Some rollers are as much as 1/8" lower or higher than the leading and last roller. I would think HTC could do better at aligning the rollers or make the alignment adjustable. I ended up attaching a removable laminated table top to the frame insted of using the rollers. Maybe HTC could sell just the folding frame without the rollers at a discounted cost. It was still worth it to me just to get the folding frame. The table folds and unfolds easily. Attachment to my saw(Powermatic 66) was easy, I installed it myself in 2-3 hours. Its great to have the outfeed table/rollers permanately attached to the saw and always in alignment when folded into place. Since I have limited space and all my equipment is mobile, its nice to just be able to fold the outfeed table down and out of the way. It is a better and more convenient design than any other outfeed table that I've seen. It took a little extra work to add a seperate tabletop, but I am glad I got one.
