I was looking for a quality sander with a small footprint for truing up tube steel since my chop saw leaves it less than square. I received this today and put it to work. Super quick setup- just a couple of quick-adjust handles to screw into the miter slot holes for holding the table, and (4) rubber feet to screw in place. Maybe 3 minutes? I was stunned when I first turned it on- SOOOO quiet and SOOO smooth. No wobble, shimmy- rock solid and NICE.Yes the miter table and sliding miter need to be set with an accurate square- you can’t go by the pointer and markings. But that’s not an issue for me. I may buy a second sliding miter fence so I can have one set at 90 and one at 45….not sure if they are available. Also there is a tiny bit of slop in the miter groove, but again, it’s not a dealbreaker for me. My steel miters welded up beautifully and true after I got things set up correctly.My (cast iron) table did droop at one point but I think I just didn’t set the hand screws tightly enough. If this ends up being an issue I’ll come back and edit.All I can say is your search is over- add to cart NOW. I got this at $299 and then I noticed the price jumped. Hopefully it’s temporary and you too can get it at under $300 (which is what the Depot was selling it for as well when I was shopping). It’s a great tool.
