Tools and Hardware Reviews of HTC PM7000 Portamate Miter Saw & Power Tool Work Center
Customer Review: OK but has design issues
Summary: 3 Stars
I use this work center for my miter saw. It is a pretty good stand for general construction but not for accurate finish work.
I did have a problem when an insert in the end of the unit broke. I called the company and the gal told me she would send me a replacement piece and commented on how difficult it is to replace the piece. When I received the replacement piece (without instructions) and installed it I found out what she meant and also why it broke. There is a design flaw that if you pull the extension out too far it will crack the insert. The entire end of the work center needs to be disassembled to replace the piece and I had to use some specialty tools (like a 12" needlenose pliers) and some ingenuity to replace the broken part.
Description of HTC PM7000 Portamate Miter Saw & Power Tool Work Center
The PortaMate? PM-7000 Pro WorkCenter not only functions as an excellent miter saw stand, it can also be used as workstation for a number of bench-top tools, such as portable planers, small band saws, scroll saws and more. Features a quick-mount attachment, outlet power center, storage compartment, extensions that support 16ft. workpieces, adjustable worklight and much more.There?s no denying the immense popularity of the power miter saw. It has pushed the radial-arm saw to the brink of extinction, and become an indispensable tool for professional contractors and do-it-yourselfers alike. However, to get the most out of your power miter saw, you must get it up off the floor and mount it to a sturdy saw stand.
At first glance, the Portamate PM7000 Miter Saw and Power Tool Work Center might just look like a fancy sawhorse, but look closer and you?ll discover one of the best portable saw stands on the market. The ruggedly built aluminum stand measures 33 inches tall by 67 inches wide, but it expands to an impressive 9 foot, 8 inches for cutting long moldings, siding or deck boards. The saw attaches to the stand?s horizontal rail via a pair of universal mounts. In fact, the mounts can be used to attach other compact benchtop tools, such as a drill press, scroll saw, band saw, or thickness planer.
Other user-friendly features include a four-outlet power strip, 8-inch-diameter wheel for easy mobility, convenient storage compartment and three adjustable work supports that have fold-down rollers. The stand?s four legs fold up for storage or for easy transport. And if all that weren?t enough, it comes with two invaluable, add-on accessories: a flexible worklight and a heavy-duty cast-aluminum bench vise.
The PM7000 combines useful features and unmatched versatility, with industrial-quality construction and competitive pricing. Bottom line: If you own a power miter saw you?ve got to get this work center. -- Joseph Truini
