Precision and control, support, and versatility, these are important features that you are looking to integrate into your work whenever you use a miter saw. While some can achieve them without any kind of problems with only their trusty miter saw at hand and nothing more, others prefer to use an upgrade with a miter saw stand. By using one your saw will not become an inconvenience in your workshop. Instead, it will offer you freedom of customizing your woodwork in an ergonomic, practice and efficient way.
While there are several stands available from which you can choose, it is best to think about the type of woodwork you do before you decide to buy one. Do you need it from a professional point of view, or just for personal use? Are you planning on taking it with you while you change job sites, or will it stay in your own workshop? If you’re not exactly familiarized with their types, you might end up choosing one that will not benefit you, and that’s not what you want. Thus, to make the best choice, one that will benefit you in the long run, let’s take a look at their types.
- Compound Miter Stands
Usually made of metal, they are sturdy but portable. Specially designed to fit all the purposes and needs of a compound miter saw user, regarding stability and control, these are ideal if you own a saw of this type.
- Table Top Miter Stands
One of the popular types, it usually has everything you need. Made to be durable, with a portion on top similar to a table – since the name – they have two legs on one side and wheels on the other.
- Rail Miter Stands
Equipped with pull out metal made legs, they have durable, time-resistant crossbars that clamp into place able to be put anywhere on the rail. Since you are offered the freedom of using the clamps anywhere, the stand offers you versatility, as you don’t have to worry about matching the saw with the stand.
- Wheeled and Folding Miter Stands
Exceptionally useful, being able to accommodate different purposes, they are mobile, thus giving you the ability to put them wherever you need. Time resistant, they are split in two; a pair of legs is completely stable, while the other has wheels that can be locked in place. It can be used with one hand if the situation arises while it offers you extensive portability thanks to its rubber wheels and folding legs.
- Traditional Miter Stands
Designed rather simple, it includes a pair of sawhorses on each end and a solid plank connecting the two stands. It usually is quite heavy, making it quite tedious to move around. Extremely sturdy, able to hold a lot of weight, it is usually used for heavy-duty woodwork.
Now that you found out how many types of miter saw stands there are, and you’ve already chosen which one fits you and your style best, it’s time to take a look at what features you have to pay attention to when you decide to buy it.
- Stability– Since most miter stands are portable or have at least one movable component, you have to be sure they stay in place once they are set up. But be careful which one you choose, as they can get quite heavy. Plus, you have to make sure it’s not shoddy, doesn’t wiggle or wobble, as this might negatively affect your work and safety.
- Compatibility – While some types of stands give you freedom of choice regarding your saw, others do not, and are, thus, compatible only with certain saw types and brands. So, make sure you either choose a stand compatible with your saw – if you already have a saw – a stand that doesn’t restrict your saw type, or you, if you don’t already have a saw, pick a stand that will enhance your work style.
- Material Support – Usually equipped with arm extensions, thus able to support long materials, there are some that do not come with this feature. If you know your work requires additional material support, pick one that offers you this help.
- Weight Capacity – Not all stands can support the same weight, as some are made for lightweight work while others for heavy-duty work. Depending on where you plan on using it, professionally or personally, keep in mind the weight of the materials you’re going to end up using and choose one that can sustain the load.
