Rousseau 2775 Table Saw Stand

Before buying this product, I checked with Rousseau about the fit since the 4100 was not list. I was told that this was the correct product and fit for the Bosch 4100.My previous experience with Rousseau was with a small Makita table top saw and the combination was essential for effective use of the saw. I used this combination very successfully for many years until I decided to update to a newer and larger saw. I have a small space and need to be able to set up and tear down easily and was happy with how well this combination worked.However, the 2775 and Bosch 4100 is not a great combination.1. To even use the saw with the table, the bracket for holding the saw blade safety parts must be removed.2. Fitting the saw with the plastic disks used for alignment was very difficult at best and required use of parts I had left over from my last Rousseau table.3. The left edge of the saw is against the table leg lateral and it tends to scrape the outside of the saw housing.4. With these issues, it does not lend itself well to fast setup and tear down.My timing for buying wasn't the best as I didn't get around to setting it all up and identifying the problems it until it was too late to return.I have contacted Rousseau looking for suggestions and didn't not receive a reply.I will be selling this product and taking my lumps and lessons from my loss.

I have a DeWalt 744 tabel saw and I am very disappointed in this stand. The stand is poorly engineered to work with the DW744 so the saw doesn't fit into the stand well at all.Rousseau suggests cutting the base of the DW744 as it extends beyond the table of the saw and they blame this for the saw not fitting in the stand properly. They then suggest trimming the base to fit. The idea that I would cut the base of a $500 saw to work with a $350 stand is ludicrous. Just design the stand properly in the first place. I spoke with two people at Rousseau and neither were able to assist.I was eventually able to cram the saw in the stand but it took a friend helping me (along with a lever to gently push the base of the saw down). Unfortunately, this means the saw is pretty much stuck in the stand and if I want to take the saw anywhere I have to take this stand with me.The problems did not end here. Once the saw is in the stand you then have to use awkward bushings that are supposed to hold the saw in place. Guess what? They don't include enough bushings to level the saw with the top of the stand. Sure, it's an inexpensive fix with fender washers but shouldn't all the parts come in the kit to begin with?The next problem happens after the saw is sitting on the bushings. The bushings are impossible to position so they lock the saw in place because of a rounded bolt head preventing you from using two wrenches, which means the table saw can move inside the stand and we all know that the slightest movement means a poor cut. I've temporarily fixed this by using some Irwin clamps and I'm going to figure out a way to permanently keep the saw from moving but the idea that this is necessary at all is a giant disappointment. This stand is way too expensive for what you have to put up with. It's probably worth about $250 all said and done.It may work better with other saws, but if you have a Dewalt, go elsewhere or plan on having to do some rigging to get it to work properly.

Very good stand, sturdy and large. Nice fence but a bit on the shorter side, but will make an auxillary fence to fix this. The only real problem I had was the shipping, the table top had a gouge in it because of damage. If it had benn packaged with styrofoam covering this part, likely it would have been prevented. Amazon did make good on this with a partial refund though. Overall very pleased with the stand.

To all of those who have no idea the value of this option and are professional, I can confidently say that every other builder/contractor/carpenter who has seen this on the job have all commented on how they wish they had this set-up. When you have the full set-up [Table, out-feed and extension] all in place you have set yourself apart and have put yourself in a position to be much, much, more productive. I know for a fact this has saved me money over the years. I just sold my 8yr old set-up and purchased the whole package once again.Why?? Because I know the value is there. Now I'm set for another 8 or so years.

This is my second Rousseau setup. I have had the 2745 for the dewalt 745 for a few years. Very easy setup with that one because it is made for it. I bought the 2775 for a dewalt 744 I got on sale at Home Depot. A little more difficult to setup as it is made for multiple table saws. Once setup, it amazingly expands a portable saw. Nice work again Rousseau.

To any body reading this review. Eariler I rated the rousseau #2775 table saw stand with a (1) star rating because the directions are not real helpfull. This is true. If you call rousseau they will help you with this problem. second I reported that the stand would not fit the Dewalt portable table saw with out twisting the saw to make it fit. I also blamed this on rousseau for A bad design. After talking to rousseau, I found out that it's not the design that bad, it's actually my dewalt table saw thats the problem. The BASE on the table saw is only (1") smaller then the top, thus making it hard to fit into the stand without some effort (not rousseau's falt). They advised me that most people that have this saw, and I am finding this to probably be true, are either doing the hard fit or they are eliminating about 1/2" of the base of the saw (which by the way you probably won't miss). If someone else has a better idea let me or rousseau know please. By the way. You'll notice I have upgraded my rating.
