Mobile base for Unisaw

here's an idea:

Delta makes a dedicated base for the Uni, and it's quite nice. DAMHIKT.

the Delta mobile base is hard to beat.

I've got the delta mobile base, and I agree it's well designed. Easy to assemble, strong, and obviously designed to fit the saw exactly. In the down position, it's very solid, and in the up position I can push 400 lbs of machinery around with one hand. The swiveling third wheel makes it very easy to maneuver around tight curves.

My only wish is that it lifted the saw a little higher, but that's because the floor of my shop is not very flat (concrete basement floor in poor condition with several bumps and discontinuities). On the plus side, there's plenty of adjustment in the foot levers, so I can get the thing sitting solid on the floor on all points. With a reasonably flat floor, this wouldn't be an issue.

I agree with you Roy on wishing that it lifted the saw a bit higher. I found that by raising the rubber feet at the end of the table a bit, I can clear most of the undulations in the concrete floor. The seam down the middle is the biggest PITA.

I have this one on my Grizzly contractor saw. It also apparently works on Grizzly's cabinet saws.

there's no wood in Delta's Unisaw mobile base!

that one isn't up to the task, Dave. He needs the Delta base designed for the Uni.

The knobbed screws on the front have rubber feet on the bottom. They do a very good job of leveling and holding the saw in place while in use.

My Delta mobile base is all metal. The one with wood is a "universal" base. The one I have is made specifically for the unisaw.

However, the Delta came with my Unisaw... :)

If you live anywhere near a Woodworkers' Warehouse, they are going out of business and Unisaw mobile bases are 40% off

I got one of the Delta bases from WWW last night for 50% off...
