Product Description
The TracRac T3 is a remarkably rugged and versatile workstation, with all the functionality required by the professional contractor. The T3 has been redesigned from the ground up, with a focus on increased cutting capacity. The result is a 9.5 ft cutting capacity to the stop. The system comes with a cam lock saw mount which fits all miter and chop saws, two extension arms, two cam action work supports, one rotary stop, one extension stop and a wheel kit. While the wheels make it portable, its 4 1/2 ft retractable length allows it to fit easily in a pick up bed. The T3's rugged aluminum construction supports 20 feet of material and has a capacity of 500 lbs. It is engineered to deliver!

5.0 out of 5 stars
The highest quality stand I've seen thus far!,
By ScottAW (Queensbury, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: TracRac 24322 T3 Professional Miter Saw Workstation (Tools & Home Improvement)
I picked up the Makita 10" sliding miter saw (LS1013) and purchased this stand for it. I have to say, I was hesitant given the $250 price tag, as I was also looking at the $99 cheaper one. I played with the DeWalt one at the "orange" store, but wasn't overly impressed with some of the design features.The TracRac system works great. Telescoping arms with quick cam-locks, two different work-stop pieces, rollers on both sides, can hold a 16' board no problem. The folding legs work great, it's fairly lightweight, and rolls around easily. I'm a mechanical engineer and was impressed with the design and manufactured quality of this unit. While probably the most expensive, you really get what you pay for here. Just like the Makita LS1013 miter saw and the Bosch portable table saw I purchased - expensive, but worth every dollar.

Over-priced, rugged operation, and, where's the handle???,
By Lionheart "Lionheart" (L.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: TracRac 24322 T3 Professional Miter Saw Workstation (Tools & Home Improvement)
I purchased this workstation concomitantly with the Hitachi C12LCH. My decision to purchase this workstation, in lieu of the others, was because of previous reviews, its notable accessories, and, construction material. Here's my breakdown:
Instructions. Fair. Photos were excellent but the manual needs work. E.g., the "required tools" page is at the rear of the manual. As I was constructing this workstation, I was growing more and more frustrated by the constant changing of different sized wrenches! It seemed like every page I turned to, a different sized wrench was required. I kept saying to myself, why didn't they put a "required tools" page in this manual. Well... I finally found it when I finished constructing. It's on the last page. Um, TracRac guys... that page, along with the hardware figures, needs to be in the beginning of the manual--NOT THE END. Design. Fair. If you decide to use this station as a portable station--relying on the casters--be warned that the manufacturers failed to provide a handle for this contraption. The casters can be mounted on either end. Since the holes are already there, why not provide a handle to be installed on the opposite end??? Also, the rail slides and saw mount do not glide that smoothly on this device. Perhaps silicon spray would remedy this. But, in my humble opinion, when one shells out over $200 for a workstation, one assumes everything operates smooth as silk. Also, nearly all the parts supplied come in pairs. But, I became disappointed when 2 important items didn't come in pairs. For example, the kit includes only ONE add-on end stop. Be nice to have 2--one for each side. Because if you have to switch it to the opposite side, it's not a prompt, simple change. Nuts need to be turned, alignment has to be re-done, etc. Construction. Solid, for the most part. Several of the pieces, however, are scraped when you extract them from the boxes. I wasn't too pleased about that. Nonetheless, when those four legs are spread and you have your tool mounted, rest assured, this station isn't moving! And, if left outside, rust is not going to be an issue. Set-up. Lengthy. All the hardware is separated into chronological numbered bags. A no brainer for the not-so mechanically inclined. Packaging. Outstanding. Don't expect ample padding. But do expect various sized boxes. Aesthetic. Eye candy material. Ease of use. Okay. This workstation, ladies and gents, truly isn't designed for rapid transitions. Adjusting for lengths of stock, the wood stop... all this cannot be adjusted at the drop of a dime. Tools will always be required and when tools are required, that means it's "gonna take some time." In sum, I guess it's all what you're after when purchasing a workstation. By the previous reviews, I actually thought this workstation was indeed the quintessential solution--providing versatility, durability, prompt transitions and ease of use. The 24322 T3 definitely is NOT the solution to address all these concerns. If you're looking for a workstation that is, search elsewhere. Hope this helps....

GREAT PRODUCT -- SMALL FLAW,
By James S. McCulley "Jim" (Albany, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: TracRac 24322 T3 Professional Miter Saw Workstation (Tools & Home Improvement)
I recently purchased a Hitachi Universal Workstation which is actually the TracRac T3 in Hitachi clothing. I used it to trim out a new house, cutting hundreds of feet of trim and moulding. It works great and is very sturdy...except a part known as a "end cap" -- a piece of brittle plastic used as a stop for the telescoping arms. The first one broke in my bare hands -- which I thought must be a fluke, the second broke the first time the extension arm reached the stop. It has taken me awhile just to figure out that the Hitachi I bought is actually the TracRac -- so I am going to give their customer service a chance, otherwise this would be a 5 star review. I really like how easy it easy to remove the saw from the stand and to fold up and store the stand.
