What a pain in the butt to put together. Also, be aware that it will only go down to 16 inches in  width because of the rear lift wheel. I bought it for a jet jointer and as most jointers go they are very narrow bases, so this cant be made tight. Its strong but just a pain to assemble. I'm not sure if Id buy another UPDATE actually after getting it all together,it does require some patience, it really is a pretty good stand. The size as far as my jointer goes worked out well and the few inches extra width I think helped stabilize it better. Don't try to get it too tight, the bolt heads stick out and you lose some size. But actually I kinda like it and would probably get another
