It should be noted in your posting that it does not come with the wood for the shelving - only the black metal pcs and the hardware.

This is a decent stand, but not worth $100 IMO. Amazon had em for $53 shipped for a short time a few months ago, and I’d say it was worth that much.

Unlike Most of Rousseau’s products, this is made in China. It’s pretty lightweight, but when assembled - pretty sturdy.

I bought mine for my planer, but the wings setup will not work with my Ridgid 13″ planer dimensions. They sell a modified wings hardware kit for long bed planers, but it still wouldn’t work with the ridgid cause of the length.

I now use it for my Dewalt 12″ slider in my basement.

I use the Dewalt folding miter saw stand in the field, but this suffices for the basement use.

Better stands out there for $100.

Rousseau make some great stuff. Like their portable table saw set up (Portamax), but I think I’ll stick with the AD&E sawhelper for my mitersaw station. Or Trojans workcenter for framing and other rough work.
