Harbor Freight - Hercules 10“ Compact Table Saw / DeWALT Rolling Stand

I got a good deal on the Hercules tablesaw. I had heard that it mounts to the Dewalt rolling tablesaw stand. So this video is the unboxing of the saw, mounting to the stand and a quick review.

You are the man. Just bought this exact combo and needed to find someone else with the same idea. Thank you so much for the fix! With the HF sale recently I just couldn't buy the Dewalt saw after seeing head to head reviews vs the Hercules. For what I am doing at least, the value was just too good to pass up. Glad I am not the only one. Great concise video with some very useful info I didn't see in the instructions. That doesn't mean the info isn't in the instructions, I just find this video to much easier to absorb.

Thanks for the comment. Yep, I’m a fan of Harbor Freight. The quality has definitely improved over the years and is comparable to the big names. I also did the research and the Hercules specs were equal or better. Can’t figure out why they haven’t come out with a stand yet. So far I’m very pleased. Thanks again, have a great day. Cheers. Patrick

Thanks for showing this. I'm just wondering what the height of the saw table comes to when mounted on this stand. It appears to be lower than the height of your cabinets but it is hard to tell in the video. Just asking because I'm tall and a lot of mobile stands out there are ridiculously short.

Thanks for asking. But I am out of town until next weekend. I will measure it when I get back home and will get back to you with the details. Thanks again. Cheers! Patrick

Nice! Will have to pick one up

[@scottwoodresearch]

Thanks Alex. I had no reservations on getting this saw. So far it seems comparable to the DeWalt, which I use at school. Just not as expensive. I try to be frugal when I have a choice. Thanks again. Cheers! Patrick

@@scottwoodresearch definitely! I picked up the Hercules this past weekend and did a whole plywood and trim job and I was happy with it. Just disappointed you have to use another brands stand

[@scottwoodresearch]

@Alex1234845 I agree. But the cash saved on the saw made it easier to swallow the cost of the stand. It was still cheaper than if I went with the complete DeWalt setup. And of the stands out there I like the design of the DeWalt. It also seemed to have the largest footprint. The bonus is that they included brackets for other models.

What model is DeWalt stand

[@scottwoodresearch]

Thanks for the question. The model number is DWE74911. I like this one because it seemed to have the widest base with the legs extended than others out there. Cheers! Patrick

What's the price?

[@scottwoodresearch]

Thank you for the question. The Harbor Freight table saw was $370 and the DeWalt stand was $160. I love them both. Being able to fold up the saw and roll it out of the way is a game changer! Thanks again. Cheers! Patrick
