Summary: 5 Stars
My Motivation for Purchasing the Out Feed Table
I purchased the Delta 50-302 out feed table to extend the bed of my Delta 36-L51X Unisaw. Prior to this I had been using roller stands as out feed support when ripping long stock. The problem with roller stands is that it is difficult to get them the exact height of the saw table, and even if you do, this won't work when ripping long stock because the stock tends to droop below the table height before it makes contact with the roller. So now you're in a predicament. Do you continue to force the stock through the saw and hope it rides up and over the roller? Do you stop the saw and move the roller forward to support the work, only to discover that the shortened support distance from the saw table causes the stock to tip up and over like a teeter-totter when the cut is complete? Do you use several rollers in series? The answer is none of the above, you forget the rollers and purchase an out feed table.
The potential of a good saw is either limited or fully realized depending upon the quality its side and out feed support. Therefore in addition to the out feed table, I strongly recommend purchasing the side extension table too! With a good out feed support and side extension support, your expensive saw can do all the big jobs it is capable of.
Packing and Shipping
The packing of the out feed table was of superior quality. It came in a very heavy gauge cardboard carton. The contents were packed well and reached my door step in perfect condition. Many reviewers noted that their table was damaged in shipping due to less than quality packaging. Not so in my case. Perhaps Delta has responded to all the negative customer feedback.
Assembly
Overall the design of the support structure for this out feed table appears to have been taken straight from the Rube Goldberg text book on over complicated design and difficult ways to achieve simple results. It appears as though the assignment to design this out feed table was handed to some young mechanical engineer fresh out of college as his very first task at his new company. Furthermore it appears that the senior engineers and management at Delta neglected to conduct any design reviews on his work. Assembly of this table is exasperating at best.
The table has two angle braces that bolt at the lower end to the bottom of the saw cabinet, and bolt at the top end to two horizontal supports that extend from the top of the saw cabinet. For some reason, the two bolts that are used to attach the bottom of the braces are radically different from one another even though both bolts perform the same function. There is no mention of the reason for this in the assembly instructions. These bolts are inserted from the outside the saw cabinet and the nuts are connected from inside the saw cabinet. In order to connect the nuts to the bolts you have to remove the injection molded plastic motor cover. It is almost impossible to connect the nut to the bolt for the angled support brace that is the furthest away from the saw motor cover. The distance you have to reach into the saw base to attach this nut is much longer than my arm. I couldn't hold the support brace with one hand and at the same time wrap my arm around the cabinet and stick my arm in the motor cover hole to attach the nut. This is definitely a two person job, and one person has to have very long arms.
Some of the previous reviewers warned about not following the assembly instruction that tells you to cut ? inch off the end of the stationary table. I followed their advice, did not make any cuts, and the table fit perfectly.
When the assembly of the out feed table is complete, it's clear that you will never want to disassemble it even if the saw needs to packed up for moving across the Atlantic. The pain of re-assembly would be just too strong of a deterrent.
Using the Out Feed Table
With that said, after the table assembly is complete the out feed table does the job for which it was intended. I am extremely happy with it. It significantly enhances the operational capabilities my saw and it definitely increases the safety of using my saw. The inherent difficulty of ripping long stock or 4x8 sheets of plywood essentially vanishes when the saw has proper out feed and side extension support.
The table has other uses too. I find that when I'm not using the saw, the table comes in handy as additional work bench space. I even use it as out feed support for my planer.
After having used the table for a few months, I wonder how I got along without it before. Would I purchase this table again if necessary? The answer is yes I absolutely would.
