Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The Bosch TB4 gravity-rise miter saw stand features the patented gravity rise system, and rapid set up and breakdown. It has an 18-inch material capacity which is the highest capacity among fully portable units. It has 8-inch pneumatic wheels which facilitate ease of transport over jobsite terrain. It also features rapid release tool mounts, adjustable leveling feet for stability on uneven surfaces and it also fits most competitors' miter saws.
The T4B Gravity Rise Miter Saw Stand is constructed of heavy duty powder coated 1 1/2 tubular steel. The T4B features Boschs patented gravity rise system, for quick and easy set up and breakdown. With a simple turn of the release lever and some slight downward pressure, the weight and balance of the saw will raise the stand and saw and lock it into working position. Turn the same release lever again to fold the stand and saw and you are ready to roll it easily to the next location. This unit features 8 inch pneumatic wheels that go over just about any jobsite terrain. The T4B utilizes an aluminum support rail and special Universal Rapid-Release Tool Mounts designed to attach to the base of all Bosch and most competitors miter saws. These mounts allow any user to quickly attach or detach the saw to the stand. And rubber-Feet prevent scratches when placing the tool on a cabinet top or bench. The same support rails expand for 18-Feet total material support, the highest among fully portable units. For users cutting long pieces of molding or flooring, this kind of support is priceless. Adjustable repetitive stops and table supports also allow the stand to adapt to varying applications and saws.

Bosch T4B Gravity-Rise Miter Saw Stand
Customer Reviews
I tested 15 miter saw stands for Fine Homebuilding magazine and the Bosch is one of my top choices. It has a wide rail body with quick connecting saw mounts. Once the mounts are bolted to your miter saw base, you can quickly snap the saw on and off the stand. The mounts have padded feet so you can rest it on a bench or floor surface.
The work extension arms are on the short side and have no separate support legs but the stand is broad and stable. The meduim diameter pneumatic wheels make it easy to pull the saw over rough jobsite terrain and up stairs. Opening and closing the system is the simplest of all saw stands I tested. Just release the small cam lever to unlock the stabilizing bar and turn the operating handle while the stand is in the upright - storage - position. A foot placed on the axle bar stabilizes the base. Gently lower the handle and the saw rail rises up to work height in one fluid motion. The stand rests on a wide bar when in the upright storage position. The bar is has a large footprint so it balances the stand with the saw mounted better than other models. You can see a 10 min video on saw stands and see how the Bosch works. http://www.taunton.com/finehomebuilding/how-to/video/miter-saw-stands-tool-review.aspx?ac=fp
This stand is amazingly well designed. Like others already commented, it folds and unfolds very fluidly and confidently. The fit and finish of the parts exhudes Bosch quality.
When folded, it is reallly compact and manoeuvrable. When set up, it's extremely sturdy and stable. There is no slop in any of the joints once it's properly assembled, except the kick-bar which spins too freely to my taste. The outfeed supports are nice and beefy, with nice integrated pop-up stops. The construction of mounting bars for the miter saw itself is very nice. You can just attatch them to the saw and leave them on. They clamp onto the stand really easily and quickly. If you have to, you can take the saw aff and transport it around with the bars attached because they have smooth bottom surfaces and aren't likely to scratch anything.
It comes very well and thoughtfully packed. No shipping damage of any kind to the parts. Bosch pretests this product by actually fully assembling and disassemmbling this product before packing and shipping. The assembly took me about 45 minutes. I purchased it, by the way, from CPO Tools, who contuinue to have a better price and are known for their great service.
The only caveat I have to bring up: this stand is HEAVY. A whopping 77 lbs of tubing and cast steel. Keep that in mind if you're planning to be taking it up and down the stairs, or loading manually in the trunk without a ramp.
