when using as an outfeed table, does wood slide easily over it?
615662
Yes, and without tipping or rocking typically encountered from the light weight low budget models. I will likely get a second one because it's designed to perform other useful functions. I don't think you'd be disappointed.

I've been using mine as an outfeed for my table saw. The micro adjust allows for precise height making outfeed smooth and accurate.
615664
Yes it does. Once you set the height correctly to receive the wood, it will work.

I bought this for my son when he moved into his house. I do recall seeing it in action when visiting and was impressed with the broad stance of the tripod legs. The top surface of the jaws are rounded and probably minimize friction of a sheet of wood sliding over it, but considering it's a tool for multiple applications, it would probably serve your purpose well. There are dedicated outfeed stands with rolling pin surface to make cutting with a table or radial arm saw much more predictable, but I see no reason why a sanded piece of wood wouldn't move easily over this tool. Again I stress the sturdy, wide stance of the tripod legs would almost prevent it from tipping over in such an application. I bought this for my son when he moved into his house.

Hi I have had this table for 2 1/2 years I have lugged it up Inn stairs it is very light I have had several tables over the years I watch others struggle with heavy tables Easy flip and set up. I would get another one of the same if I needed one

Probably - there is nothing rigid about the front of it that would make it not conform at least a bit to a round table. Most importantly, you can't have any (or much) of a trim beneath the top of the table or the bottom bars won't be able to slide over it. Not sure that makes sense, but some countertops and tables have a decorative piece about 4 inches in underneath the table top and it interferes with attaching.

I do it all the time. I really don't worry about positioning the table over a handle, and have had a ten pound turkey on the table without a slip.

There is definitely space underneath the table for an iron base and the pole could go straight down without hitting anything. The top of the table isn't too thick, but I would be cautious about cutting into it.

I have it on what would otherwise be a small 36" circular kitchen table. The table has a drop-leaf which makes it easy to back up against a wall. Tipping is not gonna happen, that would take deliberate effort. My first shipment was broken but got it re-sent no problem and there is no comparable option. Good value.

No, it's hard enough with the wheels. The table is very well built so it is heavy.

This table tilts easily by loosening the knob underneath the table and then tightening it back in place again. The tabletop itself does not swivel. however since it is on wheels that are very smooth I have never had any trouble simply swiveling the whole table out of the way. The table is designed for the weight to be distributed over the legs, if the table swiveled away, the table would fall over.

Yes, it is smooth. I use mine on top of a tablecloth, but you shouldn't have any problem with it.

My table has no slope. It has a very smooth surface. I use it to play games on and have had no issues at all.

The top is not that slippery but the bottom side wants to slip a little on my table. I have an old table that has been refinished and the surface is rather slick.

The table legs are OK. Just don't lean on the edges that tip the table over.

I just have a sturdy folding table with a sheet over it. Tipping has not been a problem.

There isn't a whole lot of vibration at all. Make sure your surface is steady. I was on a fold out table first and it did vibrate. When I moved it to my wooden table it wasn't noticeable at all. Hope that helps.

If the table is an inch thick than yes but if there is only an inch of overhang then it might just fall off when too much weight is placed on it (ie leaning on the tray). We've taken it to a bunch of resturants and houses and there has only been two tables so far that didn't fit! I hope this helps!!

Any table with a lip or limited overhang makes it difficult which we have run into with some of the older tables my family has. We haven't had much issue at restaurants with it fitting the table though. Overall we are very happy with this purchase and was great when our little boy was still a wobbly with sitting up.

I have found this to be a solid table, and it has withstood bumps and thumps better than any table I have had. We use it in the kitchen, where it does receive abuse. Be sure to tighten all screws when assembling and check them occasionally to make sure they stay tight. I think the screw construction is part of the reason it is sturdy.
