Review: Great Mobile Base For Woodworking Equipment - This is a fabulous mobile base that is very heavy-duty, despite being nicely adjustable in one-inch increments. I am a retired furniture maker and was fortunate to be able to build my collection of equipment to include some large vintage cast-iron pieces which are very heavy (~750-800 pounds). My new shop is smaller, so I need/want to have all of my equipment mobile, and this base absolutely fits the bill. I considered having a "custom" base welded for my equipment, but thought that I would give this base a try first, given its great reviews...I am completely satisfied, and it's worth every dollar. The steel tubing and welded corners are of a heavy enough gauge that the entire base is VERY stiff once bolted together. The wheels are truly ball bearing, not just a shaft (bolt) going through a bushing in the center of the wheel. The orange levers used to raise the base off of the "steering wheels" are a nicely-engineered eccentric cam that lifts/lowers the load in a controlled way. This mechanism includes an adjustable foot that allows the base to be leveled (within ~1/2" range) relative to the non-turning wheels at the other end of the base. Assembly was very straightforward and took about 30-40 minutes; the next one, which I'm buying right now, will only take about 20 minutes now that I've done one already. I am using it for a cast-iron Crescent Heavy 20 bandsaw that weighs 775 pounds and it is very stable and easy to move around the shop. The next one will be for a Master 24" disc sander, also weighing ~750 pounds, but somewhat more top-heavy. I'll update the review if having a more top-heavy load adversely affects the performance of the base -- my gut tells me that it won't be a problem.
Review: Excellent Customer Service - Okay anyone can have an issue in the manufacturing process. I would buy from Bora again. The mobile base is an excellent overall product. I called Bora told them about the defective part. They asked for some basic information and they saw the issue apologized and sent a replacement part and I received it in days. They turned lemons into lemonade!!! Great Customer Service!!! Happy Day!!! Unusable for a smaller-sized base. The other (3) corners are fine, and the legs slide all the way in. My Laguna shaper is heavy in fact it came with cast iron wheels but only rolled in a straight line. The current base (while it went together easy) is slowly falling apart. This Bora base is very heavy duty, but in trying to get it together a lot paint is gone. Not used to having metal bits and and paint chips on my work bench and floor! It's been ugly!!! Happy Day!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very well made. Its easy to assemble and feels like it will last forever.
*by J***S on July 9, 2025*

Very well made. Its easy to assemble and feels like it will last forever. I am using this under my Jet 1836 drum sander(Need the extension kit too). This made the drum sander which was hard to move with out, a effortless item to move in the shop. Well worth the investment. The extension kit I got for it is the Fisch Bora Portamate PM-3050 Extension. Which is also very robust in its construction. Note that I chose to rotate the wheels where the stops are to reduce the overall length of the floor foot print.
