So I think you can turn the two thumb screws and remove the hand truck bed once you set it in table mode to avoid the trip hazard. Then slide it back on before you set it back upright. It may not need to be left on there at all. It would also be cool to remove the top and replace it with a Bora 36" x 48" MFT style top.
Ryobi did a good job of transforming a gravity rise table into a workbench. These types of folding tables have been used for miter/table saw for years. My 15+ year old Bosch job site saw came mounted to a similar gravity rise table.
Ryobi never ceases to impress me I've been running the Ryobi tools professionally for years now the only thing that goes wrong with him is that if I drop them too many times on concrete it breaks the plastic but that goes with every tool that but I love the Ryobi system that I can change the battery out with anything they held up as good as any professional tool out there I will stand beside them and work with them beside anybody else with any of the other high-dollar tools now Ryobi is more than a DIY tool
Over the years I’ve become kind of an expert at creating quick, sturdy table top work surfaces. I have a few quick, useful solutions that I use regularly. Nonetheless, this tool review has convinced me that this may be an excellent addition to my toolkit. Father’s Day may include Ryobi this year.
I can see that s being used for sewing classes. It can be used with an ironing board, or a cutting mat. All your cases and sewing machine can be strapped to the dolly for transport.
I was super excited when I saw the title to the video. I’m a Ryobi guy and I’m in a wheelchair. The makeshift workbench I have is a little bit too tall for me and about twice as big as I need. This one would have been perfect for me to use if it wasn’t for the way the frame crosses in the middle I wouldn’t be able to get my chair up under it to work. I guess I’ll keep looking
Although it isn’t exactly a solution for a wheelchair, I watched a video where a guy attached his planer to a hydraulic ATV scissor lift that lifts up to 500lbs and has wheels to move it around. It makes it possible to adjust the planer (or whatever) to the desired height; I am going to use it so I can use plastic folding tables as indeed and outfeed tables. While plastic tables aren’t ideal to work on, they also have heavy duty aluminum tables with square stock steel legs that would be perfect with a sheet of MDF or Melamine on top- then adjustable height power equipment. I’m constantly looking for ways to adapt myself as I am permanently disabled and I have a son that is in a wheelchair
Check Progressive Desk or Progressive Automations for an adjustable height desk or desk leg system. Lots of room underneath, adjustable, and can handle a good amount of weight.
Thank you for the honest review, as all of your reviews are. I can see where that would fill many needs. I like it and money was no object I'd buy one for sure. I love all of your content Matt. This was no exception Thanks again! 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Great unboxing and review, I like the fact that you aren't mad at it 🙂 I may have to add on of these to the shop when they become available. Thanks for the honest take on this product.
Definatly going to liik into this, I think it will work great in my garage. It folds very similar to my Ridgid Table saw and that always work quick and easy. It could also be very handy at tag sales, move the stuff out and then have an additional table to stack items on.
Definitely interesting. Looks suspiciously like a reconfigured Rigid miter saw stand. If you put some quick detach fasteners on the top, you could configure additional butcher block tops that have miter saws and other equipment that you could remove and throw on a shelf when not in use.
No surprise, since the same company owns Ryobi…and Milwaukee (Techtronic Industries). I love “Red” tools, especially for professional use, but know quite a few DIYers who get great service from “Yellow” tools, and they’re easier on the budget. Thanks for keeping us in the loop on new tools & especially letting us know about great discounts. Mat God continue to bless you & your mission.
Yep, Hong Kong based TTI now owns Homelite, Ryobi, Rigid, Emerson and Milwaukee along with Empire Level, Stiletto, Hart, Hoover, Oreck, VAX, Royal, DreBo, Dirt Devil and AEG Power Tools. Some of the brands they took over are now substantially lower quality too. When I repair them using bearings from local supply houses the biggest problem I'm having is that the local suppliers refuse to sell bearings that match the extreme low quality used by TTI so I have to buy the much higher quality ones they stock which sometimes cost as much as $2. Sad that tools they sell for $100 or more have bearings that retail for only 50 cents in them which means they likely get them in bulk for 10 cents or less. Even sadder is that if you buy the bearings through TTI they sell them for substantially more than the high quality bearings one can often purchase locally. Customers are amazed when they get the tools back and the bearings last sub substantially longer with the tools running much more smoothly than when new. Best!
I do competition barbecue. I’m thinking have the dolly feature and the work height it would make a great prep table. Throw my large cutting board on it, the bins at the ends could hold rib containers…may have explore this idea more.
Come Father's Day this year I'm guessing these will be on sale (or rather with a combo) and I might be picking up one of these. With moving to my new house, I lost my shop and am a long way from rebuilding it , so this, for the price, could get me back to building far faster than my plans for my garage shop!
This looks really good. My woodshop is in my basement, I might have to pick this up to replace my 30 year old Workmate that I keep in the garage. I have my jointer and planer in the garage and need a workspace as well. I'd probably remove the foot for the dolly completely, so it will take up less space against the wall in the garage. Could always put it back on when a doliy is needed.
I have a similar Stanley, "workbench" with work mate style clamping table and it converts into a hand truck. It is about 20 years old now and still in service.
If you like this collapsible stand, you really need to review the Kobalt 10” table saw. Its stand sets it apart from any other budget saw. Hands down, it’s the best value for a job site saw and easily competes with saws that are twice its price.
The “tripping hazard” while in work bench mode can be eliminated by removing the dolly platform. I would guess that’s why they made it easily remove by mount with wing bolts.
Looks useful, I have a small amount of space available to me since I typically keep cars in my garage and only setup when I have a project to do so I've been thinking about something like this or some of those folding work tables I've seen people build that mount to the wall. I just wish the ryobi workbench was bigger so I could comfortably cut plywood or other longer materials on it
Very well made. My battery platform is Ryobi. I’ve used them for years. I still have my Ryobi blue tools. They just last. Are their tools that I don’t like from Ryobi, yes and an example is the grinder. Works and runs good, a lot of power but the lock gear to change wheel broke very quickly
I got the ad for this about a week or so ago. Around 2-3 weeks ago I bought supplies to build my own portable workbench. Along with that purchase was a 2-wheeler (dolly to some) as I got our first large miter saw, and a table for it. They are heavy so we needed the dolly to bring them in and move things around. Had I seen the ad for this I very likely would have bought it instead of building my own. Would have saved money on the dolly. Ugh. Probably another week or two to finish the bench and I could have already been building other projects with this.
Since the ledge of the dolly comes off, just take it off when in bench mode. Now no more tripping hazard. if they put hinges on it or made the bench top longer, that increases the weight, or cost or something. All these tools have tradeoffs to make it better for one thing and less better than another. I saw someone mount a 1 gallon vacuum on there with the link system for sawdust collection and I though that was brilliant. I'd do the same except add a pegboard top to use as a draft down with the vacuum to trap as much sawdust as possible at certain areas.
Can you loosen the wing bolts and remove the base plate once it is opened up as a work table to prevent the trip hazard? While you had it folded up on your bench you mentioned it could be removed but once it was open you said it was a trip hazard and never mentioned removing it.
It's pretty neat, and I'd have seriously considered it if it came out a year and a half ago. But I've got the DeWalt Toughsystem cart for moving my toolboxes and as a general hand truck now, and a Bora Centipede for a workbench, so this would take up space I don't really have for it and be redundant.
I built one pretty similar with an old Kobalt wheeled miter saw stand and 3/4" plywood. Mine has dog holes on one end and Herbor Freight magnet bars on the other. Seems that one opens and closes easier.
Ryobi is owned by Techtronic Industries, a Hong Kong-based multinational engineering and technology company. Founded in 1985, Techtronic has evolved into one of the world's leading power equipment companies, owning several brands such as Milwaukee and Ryobi.Jul 20, 2023
That looks like excellent value for money. Ryobi has a killer greatest hits album in their catalogue. They also have a filler line up (the garden pole hedge trimmer and patio cleaner in my experience). The big issue with Ryobi for me, if doing serious work, is the battery charging time. Makita are not very much more expensive for a lot of tools, and the equivalent capacity Makita batteries charge up in about 10% of the time. I love my air strike nailers, way cheaper than Makita, and the 18 Volt glue gun and caulking gun. It’s worth the extra battery platform for just these tools.
Being a regular dolly user the one thing I would like is changing the dolly ledge from tubular to flat. The tubular design make it nearly impossible to tilt a heavy item a a few degrees and sliding the a flat dolly lip under it.
This looks exactly like the stand that comes with the Ridgid collapsible table saw. I wouldn't be surprised if they came from the same factory.It was really convenient for small spaces. Still glad I upgraded to the DeWalt though.
@@jeffdillon1972 Thanks for the confirmation. That was pretty smart of them to repurpose that stand for a new application. I am sure it will probably sell well if it does go on sale.
@@gregghernandez2714 good saw but the best thing about it is the stand. Those wheels have taken that saw over some gnarly terrain. Will be nice to drag a workbench across the same.
I kinda want to mod it with packout for my handyman/woodworking business and see how I could get it to perform. Looks like a better option then the packout dolly.
Good review, looks good. Tiny sho guy so sometimes I need to work outside and this may do the trick. A couple thoughts: - Would love to see a vid of you moving a refrigerator with this; possible/safe? :) - Top is great, could drill 20mm on 96mm spaced dog holes (ala Festool) to lighten and give more clamping options - Doing the above with thicker top could find a good balance between weight/strength
love that as I have to move my work and tools from my garage to the driveway. Finally something to take the place of my workmates (have a total of 3 of them in various configurations). Ryobi do you need a weekend project doer to test it out..hint hint...lol
I’ll bet those ruler markings change depending on the temp, could be accurate at one temp and ever so slightly off when warm or cold. Seemed ok for a quick measure though.
This is cool. It looks like a modified Ridgid mitersaw stand. This will be perfect for field carpenters. I build and install cabinets and can see this being incredibly useful. I think I’ll get one
There should be additional mount points for the dolly tray on the legs further up near the crossbeam. This could then make a mid level platform for placing things in workbench mode, and it would be stop the tray being a trip hazard at the end. Ideally you would have some kind of quick release snap fittings rather than the wing nuts. Additionally, the dolly plate should be able to flip over in the bottom mounts, so that it is parallel to the surface in the upright mode. This would allow shallower storage without the plate sticking out.
Matt you got yourself set up nice man! Been watching for a while and since you pivoted, “PIVOT!”, over to the tool review format I’m jealous (but in a good way). Playing with awesome tools for a living sounds pretty awesome to me 🤷🏻♂️, don’t worry about them haters you found your niche and I’m here for it 🤙🏼
I wonder if you clamped plywood to it in dolly mode, if it’ll easily convert to table mode bringing the plywood with it. could serve an additional benefit for those with bad backs that have trouble getting full plywood sheets up to their tablesaw.
Definitely agree the worktop should extend beyond dolly plate. I would just leave that off, but looks like it when folded up it wouldn't stand up without it. 😢
Looks very much like a Ridgid miter saw stand with a bench top on it. Since Ryobi, Ridgid and Milwaukee are owned by the same parent company this really would be smart to cross over.
That thing seems pretty darn cool. If you could fold the bottom piece up when it's open as a table, that would be another acceptable solution. Sounds like you can just remove it, but that seems like a bit of a pain and then I assume you'd just have some tubes sticking out instead, so I think a mechanism to fold it back would probably be nicer. I like multi-purpose tools that actually work well though. I don't have a dedicated working space, so I often set up in the garage and something like that could be handy and easier than saw horses.
Totally agree with ya brother,that dolly lip when laid down to use the table will trip ya in the first 5 seconds...with all that engineering,all they had to do was use a set of small hinges on the bottom,right where the curve of it is,heck even put like a spring load system of some kind to flip it down or up when not in use....saw and thought of that first 30 secs of review...still kinda like it...id use it to roll out the RC ramps for my big Rc vehicles....great review as always....when we gunna see some build videos on here?? Maybe a walk thru of a behind the scenes of a day in ur utube world???👊👊👊👊👊
You mentioned that the part that makes it usable as a dolly is removable. Take it off before converting it into bench mode and the trip hazard will be gone. Just remember to replace before going back to dolly mode.
Can the worktop be changed out? I have a tiny shop and my "workbench" is just 2 sawhorses with a removable plywood top that has 2x4s notched for the sawhorses. I definitely plan to get one of these for the size and convenience but was thinking maybe the top could be swapped out for some butcher block or something.
You missed the one tiny detail that would help, it's not on sale yet. I was impressed with the dual utility of the tool and went to go purchase the unit. Getting this tool would give me the opportunity of upgrading my current hand truck (cart) and have a portable bench too boot. To my great sadness it was listed as coming soon.
To protect yourself from hitting that plate while in bench mode it has 2 nobs that you unscrew to slide that plate off then the frame is safely underneither
Love this idea, I have a 10x10 shed shop and have two of the Worx tables I set-up outside for my smaller tools. I wonder if you put the Link items on the other end of the table if they would extend enough to eliminate the trip hazard of the dolley base? Would it still collapse with those in place?
Only things I would add: hooks on all sides for strapping equipment, flipp out wheels on the " dolly" side with an extendable arm so you could wheel it as a cart
Hey brother. I had to come back by and leave a like and a comment on your video. Great job on covering this cool new table. I can see people purchasing these tables for the purpose of mounting jobsite table saws, jobsite miter saws, bench top planners, and a whole other bench top power-tools that are so much better when they're secured to a table, even if, or especially if that table happens to be mobile. That sucker's got big wheels on it. You should try throwing a bunch random construction debris on the driveway and then roll this thing over it with a few crates of tools on it, to simulate what rolling up to jobsite would actually be like.
In the video, you said the scale is 40" but the measurement from end to end was 56¾ was that a mistake? It only look like there was about 2-3 inches past the end of the scale. Thanks for all the info on this product
@@roro54321 it's not about doubts. It's about patent access. If there is a parent at Ryobi that Milwaukee wants, they have access to it. This is a fact. Check your idiocy.
Do you think there would be any issue bolting a vise to this table? And if not, do you feel like you could wrench on the vise upwards to 80ft lbs without tipping the table?
Ryobi, in my opinion, has a different demographic audience. I do sell tools as a side business. Their brushless line is pretty darn good and when on sale, they are well worth the money spent. Most DYI or hobbyist are not going to need anything better: aka more expensive. The less the tools cost, the more different tools you can buy for the same amount spent. Ryobi makes a ton of power tools and outdoor tools. Now if you want to impress the neighbors and friends then go with a different color: Red (Milwaukee), Yellow (Dewalt), Blue (Makita), Orange (Ridgid). As far as this mobile table, it seems like it may have a place for many people in a small shop/garage. It's a copycat world and I can see other manufactures checking to see if people buy these. And if people do buy these, I think the other companies will release a model with additional features.
I think Home Depot sells replacement tops for the Husky tool boxes that are a nice, finished wood. It wouldn't have the ruler on it, but I wonder how difficult it would be to replace this top with one of those? I mean, eventually you might have to think about replacing the top anyway, after years of use. 🤔🤔

honestly a couple bungees and this would be a great addition to range days when you need a table on the outdoor ranges
very good idea

"We're gonna test that"
Nice hat tip to Project Farm!
I can see that s being used for sewing classes. It can be used with an ironing board, or a cutting mat. All your cases and sewing machine can be strapped to the dolly for transport.
And the actual size of the table top is 27.25x56.75”!
Very cool. Thanks for the review.
I was super excited when I saw the title to the video. I’m a Ryobi guy and I’m in a wheelchair. The makeshift workbench I have is a little bit too tall for me and about twice as big as I need.

I can't wait to get this bench! I'm a furniture artist, and this will be a dream to move and work on heavier pieces.
"Furniture artist"? You build stairs that look like spoons and sofas that look like a race car?
I do competition barbecue. I’m thinking have the dolly feature and the work height it would make a great prep table. Throw my large cutting board on it, the bins at the ends could hold rib containers…may have explore this idea more.
It unfolds just like my ridgid mitersaw stand and i love it.
its nearly identical to the rigid stand the more I look at it
@@deviceone Of course it does. TTI owns them both and the Rigid are often just rebranded Ryobi with Orange Plastcs instead of Sour Apple Green.
Best!
Come Father's Day this year I'm guessing these will be on sale (or rather with a combo) and I might be picking up one of these. With moving to my new house, I lost my shop and am a long way from rebuilding it , so this, for the price, could get me back to building far faster than my plans for my garage shop!
I’ll be getting one. Love the Ryobi products
I'm pretty sure that's why there are wingnuts on the dolly part so you can remove it in work bench mode
I could see this for my Soon to be built Garden/Orchard Shed. Thanks Matt great review as usual.
Yep. And great for quilters to cart sewing machine and projects into retreats and then have your own cutting table.
This looks really good. My woodshop is in my basement, I might have to pick this up to replace my 30 year old Workmate that I keep in the garage. I have my jointer and planer in the garage and need a workspace as well. I'd probably remove the foot for the dolly completely, so it will take up less space against the wall in the garage. Could always put it back on when a doliy is needed.
Add a larger sheet of 3/4" ply to the top making it 1 1/2" thick. It would also extend out to cover the dolly pad.
Nice call....👍I like that!
Intriguing design. Love this. I'll have to wait for one to go on sale, though.
My miter saw is on a cart that folds up the same way. it's great for small spaces
I have a similar Stanley, "workbench" with work mate style clamping table and it converts into a hand truck. It is about 20 years old now and still in service.
They did add the wingnuts to quickly remove the dolly part when in table mode if you are concerned about tripping over it.
I’m going to get this for my husband for Father’s Day. I wanted to know a more about it. Thanks!
That is nice!!! Your comment at the start of video. Priceless!!!!

Do you think you can unscrew the table top from the metal frame and slide it towards the dolly end then screw it back to the frame?
I got the ad for this about a week or so ago. Around 2-3 weeks ago I bought supplies to build my own portable workbench. Along with that purchase was a 2-wheeler (dolly to some) as I got our first large miter saw, and a table for it. They are heavy so we needed the dolly to bring them in and move things around.

Ryobi is owned by Techtronic Industries, a Hong Kong-based multinational engineering and technology company. Founded in 1985, Techtronic has evolved into one of the world's leading power equipment companies, owning several brands such as Milwaukee and Ryobi.Jul 20, 2023
That looks like excellent value for money. Ryobi has a killer greatest hits album in their catalogue. They also have a filler line up (the garden pole hedge trimmer and patio cleaner in my experience). The big issue with Ryobi for me, if doing serious work, is the battery charging time. Makita are not very much more expensive for a lot of tools, and the equivalent capacity Makita batteries charge up in about 10% of the time. I love my air strike nailers, way cheaper than Makita, and the 18 Volt glue gun and caulking gun. It’s worth the extra battery platform for just these tools.
Now I have a good idea for transforming my Ridgid miter saw station! I’ll make a MFT panel for it in place of my saw. Good idea!
Wow, that is cool. That would be perfect for my garage. Gonna have to tell my wife about this. She will approve! :)
Being a regular dolly user the one thing I would like is changing the dolly ledge from tubular to flat. The tubular design make it nearly impossible to tilt a heavy item a a few degrees and sliding the a flat dolly lip under it.
This looks exactly like the stand that comes with the Ridgid collapsible table saw. I wouldn't be surprised if they came from the same factory.It was really convenient for small spaces. Still glad I upgraded to the DeWalt though.
I have that saw and this IS exactly the same stand. Same company so it makes sense.
@@jeffdillon1972 Thanks for the confirmation. That was pretty smart of them to repurpose that stand for a new application. I am sure it will probably sell well if it does go on sale.
@@gregghernandez2714 good saw but the best thing about it is the stand. Those wheels have taken that saw over some gnarly terrain. Will be nice to drag a workbench across the same.
I kinda want to mod it with packout for my handyman/woodworking business and see how I could get it to perform. Looks like a better option then the packout dolly.
For a workbench that is a cool idea
so nice would work well for me in my small shop
Good review, looks good. Tiny sho guy so sometimes I need to work outside and this may do the trick. A couple thoughts:
- Would love to see a vid of you moving a refrigerator with this; possible/safe? :)
- Top is great, could drill 20mm on 96mm spaced dog holes (ala Festool) to lighten and give more clamping options
- Doing the above with thicker top could find a good balance between weight/strength
Great video. The front piece that sticks out can easly be removed.
this thing ought to come out of the box a little more assembled..... but looks like a good addition if you have room for it in your garage....
Is the top thick enough to drill holes for bench dog hold downs?
love that as I have to move my work and tools from my garage to the driveway. Finally something to take the place of my workmates (have a total of 3 of them in various configurations). Ryobi do you need a weekend project doer to test it out..hint hint...lol
I’ll bet those ruler markings change depending on the temp, could be accurate at one temp and ever so slightly off when warm or cold. Seemed ok for a quick measure though.
This thing is cool i hope they will it also release in Europe not only in the USA
This is cool. It looks like a modified Ridgid mitersaw stand. This will be perfect for field carpenters.
I build and install cabinets and can see this being incredibly useful. I think I’ll get one
There should be additional mount points for the dolly tray on the legs further up near the crossbeam. This could then make a mid level platform for placing things in workbench mode, and it would be stop the tray being a trip hazard at the end. Ideally you would have some kind of quick release snap fittings rather than the wing nuts.
Additionally, the dolly plate should be able to flip over in the bottom mounts, so that it is parallel to the surface in the upright mode. This would allow shallower storage without the plate sticking out.
Matt you got yourself set up nice man! Been watching for a while and since you pivoted, “PIVOT!”, over to the tool review format I’m jealous (but in a good way). Playing with awesome tools for a living sounds pretty awesome to me 🤷🏻♂️, don’t worry about them haters you found your niche and I’m here for it 🤙🏼
Thanks 👍
Very cool great video Matt Thanks for sharing.
I wonder if you clamped plywood to it in dolly mode, if it’ll easily convert to table mode bringing the plywood with it. could serve an additional benefit for those with bad backs that have trouble getting full plywood sheets up to their tablesaw.
Definitely agree the worktop should extend beyond dolly plate. I would just leave that off, but looks like it when folded up it wouldn't stand up without it. 😢
Looks very much like a Ridgid miter saw stand with a bench top on it. Since Ryobi, Ridgid and Milwaukee are owned by the same parent company this really would be smart to cross over.
That thing seems pretty darn cool. If you could fold the bottom piece up when it's open as a table, that would be another acceptable solution. Sounds like you can just remove it, but that seems like a bit of a pain and then I assume you'd just have some tubes sticking out instead, so I think a mechanism to fold it back would probably be nicer. I like multi-purpose tools that actually work well though. I don't have a dedicated working space, so I often set up in the garage and something like that could be handy and easier than saw horses.
Totally agree with ya brother,that dolly lip when laid down to use the table will trip ya in the first 5 seconds...with all that engineering,all they had to do was use a set of small hinges on the bottom,right where the curve of it is,heck even put like a spring load system of some kind to flip it down or up when not in use....saw and thought of that first 30 secs of review...still kinda like it...id use it to roll out the RC ramps for my big Rc vehicles....great review as always....when we gunna see some build videos on here?? Maybe a walk thru of a behind the scenes of a day in ur utube world???👊👊👊👊👊
You mentioned that the part that makes it usable as a dolly is removable. Take it off before converting it into bench mode and the trip hazard will be gone. Just remember to replace before going back to dolly mode.
I’ve seen other reviews on this a tool and you can remove the dolly pieces while the table is in use.
Can the worktop be changed out? I have a tiny shop and my "workbench" is just 2 sawhorses with a removable plywood top that has 2x4s notched for the sawhorses. I definitely plan to get one of these for the size and convenience but was thinking maybe the top could be swapped out for some butcher block or something.
This is the first ryobi product I’ve been tempted by and it’s not even available yet
You missed the one tiny detail that would help, it's not on sale yet. I was impressed with the dual utility of the tool and went to go purchase the unit. Getting this tool would give me the opportunity of upgrading my current hand truck (cart) and have a portable bench too boot. To my great sadness it was listed as coming soon.
To protect yourself from hitting that plate while in bench mode it has 2 nobs that you unscrew to slide that plate off then the frame is safely underneither
I have a rigid miter saw stand, similar with out the dolly. I can see where this will have a market.
Love this idea, I have a 10x10 shed shop and have two of the Worx tables I set-up outside for my smaller tools. I wonder if you put the Link items on the other end of the table if they would extend enough to eliminate the trip hazard of the dolley base? Would it still collapse with those in place?
I think I’ll make one of these out of my Bosch 4100 zero-gravity stand when I build a bench for it. Maybe fill it with 20mm holes 😊
Looks like a “Must Have” in my shop!!!
Only things I would add: hooks on all sides for strapping equipment, flipp out wheels on the " dolly" side with an extendable arm so you could wheel it as a cart
Hey brother. I had to come back by and leave a like and a comment on your video. Great job on covering this cool new table. I can see people purchasing these tables for the purpose of mounting jobsite table saws, jobsite miter saws, bench top planners, and a whole other bench top power-tools that are so much better when they're secured to a table, even if, or especially if that table happens to be mobile. That sucker's got big wheels on it. You should try throwing a bunch random construction debris on the driveway and then roll this thing over it with a few crates of tools on it, to simulate what rolling up to jobsite would actually be like.
Do they make lids for those screw buckets? It'd certainly be handy if they did
This is exactly the kind of table I’ve been looking for. Did you make that portable router table that you showed atop this workbench?
In the video, you said the scale is 40" but the measurement from end to end was 56¾ was that a mistake? It only look like there was about 2-3 inches past the end of the scale. Thanks for all the info on this product
You could remove the dolly extension when it's set up to eliminate the trip hazard.
Milwaukee and Ryobi are owned by the same company, so I doubt they're scared of it. Great video.
Same parent company, different engineering teams. Check your doubts.
Yeah of course they are but like dewalt and stanley.. 😂😂😂@@roro54321
@@roro54321 they share R&D, so there's no way they're scared of this
@@roro54321 it's not about doubts. It's about patent access. If there is a parent at Ryobi that Milwaukee wants, they have access to it. This is a fact. Check your idiocy.
@@better_than_nothing or what…?
This looks like a perfect finishing table...
Yes!
Do you think there would be any issue bolting a vise to this table? And if not, do you feel like you could wrench on the vise upwards to 80ft lbs without tipping the table?
Can you leave a chop saw attached to the surface and stand it up like a dolly?
Ryobi makes a Link compatible vacuum that can hang on the end of the bench.
If need be, it looks like the dolly platform can be removed hopefully to avoid a direct trip hazard.
This is a great idea!
This would be awesome
If you move the side containers to the bottom edge instead of the top edge, that may help alert you to the tripping hazard.
If you take the dolly plate off while its set up as a table, it wont be in the way when walking and the table will have the same sturdiness.
Would have been nice if it could fold up instead - that would also make it slightly more compact for storage without having to fiddle with the bolts.
Ryobi, in my opinion, has a different demographic audience. I do sell tools as a side business. Their brushless line is pretty darn good and when on sale, they are well worth the money spent. Most DYI or hobbyist are not going to need anything better: aka more expensive. The less the tools cost, the more different tools you can buy for the same amount spent. Ryobi makes a ton of power tools and outdoor tools. Now if you want to impress the neighbors and friends then go with a different color: Red (Milwaukee), Yellow (Dewalt), Blue (Makita), Orange (Ridgid).
As far as this mobile table, it seems like it may have a place for many people in a small shop/garage. It's a copycat world and I can see other manufactures checking to see if people buy these. And if people do buy these, I think the other companies will release a model with additional features.
I think Home Depot sells replacement tops for the Husky tool boxes that are a nice, finished wood. It wouldn't have the ruler on it, but I wonder how difficult it would be to replace this top with one of those? I mean, eventually you might have to think about replacing the top anyway, after years of use. 🤔🤔
Thanks Matt. Can't wait to get that text msg. that say sale price on Ryobi work bench.
