Rockwell Jawhorse RK9110 Miter Saw Station Accessory Attachment

Cheap Rockwell Jawhorse RK9110 Miter Saw Station Accessory Attachment Review




I didn't have the time to build my own miter saw table nor did I want to. So, I spent the money to purchase this item. Like, Jerry Wiggins mentioned you can build your own table. I just wanted to order it, have it arrived in good shape, mount my miter saw to it and be done with it!

So far, it has worked out that way. Honestly, I just like the fact that I could finally get my miter saw off of my desk (where it was taken up valuable space) and give it portability. I can store my miter saw & the station out of the way. Overall, I like that I made the purchase.

Rockwell Jawhorse RK9204 Work Table Accessory Attachment

Cheap Rockwell Jawhorse RK9204 Work Table Accessory Attachment Review




I was hesitant about purchasing this item after reading the one review at the time that gave it only TWO STARS.

In my opinion the quality is great.

Yes you could purchase your own lumber, angle iron, pipe, screws and bolts from Lowes or Home Depot and build one but unless
you are a contractor and have special connections you will be paying more than the
I paid for this. But then again, it could be like the old "Electronic Heathkits" of years ago.
You get the enjoyment and satisfaction of putting it together.
(I built an oscillosope decades ago)

Note that the thickness of the board is made up of THREE layers sandwiched or glued together.
The outer two layers are constructed of strips of bamboo about 5/8 inch wide.
Within each strip you see the yearly growth ring of the bamboo.
The thickness of the three layer board is 0.631 inches (measured with calipers)

When closed, the table measures 24" by 14"
When fully opened, the table measures 24" by 18-3/4"

The lower right area of the work table has a 3-1/8" hole with a stencil showing
hand drill with drill bit. Note that this hole for the drill is NOT shown
in the current picture supplied by amazon.com

Another hole 1-1/4" is located on the other board. It has what appears to be a metal collar inserted into it.
Could be used to hold a one inch pipe upright I guess.

A caution stenciled on the table top states "Maxium load 220 lbs (100 kg)
I would purchase again.
