Easy to assemble, however, one bit of advice before installing your DEWALT scroll saw. Loosen all of the top bolts after bolting the stand to the floor. The Scroll Saw is a very tight fit, and it wouldn't fit in the stand as assembled. I had to loosen all of the top bolts (many) and jiggle that heavy saw around before the saw would fit in the stand. This is not a negative, but it would have been nice is Dewalt had included that in the directions. They do insist that you bolt it down to the floor before you put the saw in place. If you don't do that, it is likely that heavy saw will tip over. Once assembled, bolted to the floor, and the scroll saw installed, it's a solid fit, with no concern about tipping the stand and saw over.
