Best mobile stand I've used...just a bit overpriced
This item actually exceeded my expectations in quality and simplicity. After using several generic stands with my MK-101, it was nice to have a stand that fit the saw "like a glove" with absolutely no modifications. The casters are good quality (not industrial quality) and both have good quality locks (again, not industrial quality, but much better than what I've seen in an average stand). Once locked, the stand is surprising stable. The stand is pretty much "Idiot Proof," there is only one way to set the saw and it isn't going anywhere once secured. The saw is secured by one simple metal strap and knurl nut taking only a few seconds. As a pleasant bonus, the stand came completely assembled. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it is overpriced...even at about 130 bucks.
GREAT STAND BUT WRONG ONE FOR OUR LISTED MODEL
We ordered this stand based on the model numbers listed. It arrived quickly and set up easily...EXCEPT our tile saw did not fit. This stand was not wide enough. We called the factory and found out that the MK-101 (not the Pro MK-101) we purchased from Lowes is wider than others. We were given the correct stand model number (MK Diamond 169243 Stand with Swivel Casters for MK-101 and 1080 Saws) from MK and ordered it from Amazon. We had to return the 160197 and then order the 169243. The new order arrived promptly and Amazon was great with issuing us a return label and credit on our account. Both stands are well made, easy to set up and use. The casters are just what is needed to move the saw around.
STURDY STAND FOR MK DIAMOND WET SAW
Purchased this several months ago, along with a MK Diamond wet saw. Love them both. Was concerned that the stand would not be solid enough to carry the weight of the wet saw...or would be wobbly when in use. No worry......it's solid as can be and totally without movement when sawing. Perfect stand.
