Review on Bosch TS1016 Outfeed Support Assembly by Smooth May

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Could be easier to push and pull

Assembly wasn't too difficult on my Bosch 4000 table saw. See my review of the left exit support for the procedure (it's the same as this one). The two knots don't hit each other when folded, but honestly for the price they should have been bundled with the original saw. This assembly had a tendency to "get stuck" unless you pushed/pull right in the middle. However, I did find the setup stiff after blocking. Some plywood (like thin T-111) tended to catch on the front edge of the superstructure when fully extended, which I found quite dangerous and annoying; The leading edge has a slight metal crease that can suck in wood that may have a full round edge to prevent this. Also, I found that this assembly doesn't fit completely flush like the left and right supports, which looks silly.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not the best
