Planer Stand with Integrated Mobile Base, 24” x 22” x 30” (DW7350)

As many have already said - just get it, you will not be disappointed. I will echo that there is only one fairly small exploded view of the assembly, and no step by step guidance - it pays to be a visual-spatial thinker when putting this together. That said, everything went together easier than the off brand I bought. Holes in the right place, pieces line up - it was an easy solo assembly. Like many, I purchased an "alternate" brand tool caddy when I bought by DW735 because I was already spending a good deal on the tool and thought I could save a bit of money. In the long run I bought this and realize I should have done so first. The gage of sheet metal used is thicker than most - not a detail you see when looking at the pictures but you definitely notice it when putting it together - particularly if you have bought an off brand and assembled it. The levering wheel assembly is FAR more robust than the off-brand competitors - you instantly notice the difference upon unpacking. The pre-drilled MDF top for the DW733, DW734, and DW735 makes alignment foolproof, AND this tool stand COMES WITH the hardware necessary for mounting your planer! When everything was bolted together I was impressed by the sturdiness, usability, and presentation. I'm very glad I bought this despite already having a rolling caddy (which another tool has migrated to). This sets the standard for what you need and want, and in my experience everything else has been lesser.

I purchased this stand and the Dewalt 735x Planer after reading a number of reviews and seeing both in local stores (at higher prices). Lugging or dragging heavy tools around is no fun and using an unmounted planer is just plane dangerous. I was impressed with the stand when I saw it in person, but I'm even more impressed now that I have put it together. This is a very heavy duty, well constructed, and functional unit. The parts are all precisely machined and well-finished--no sharp edges anywhere, and nothing misaligned. It took me about an hour to assemble it. The instructions could be a bit better in a few places, but are honestly better than most tool assembly instructions. The fasteners come in separate bags, clearly labeled with their intended use. The legs even have little holes that fit over alignment dots on the upper aprons, thus ensuring a square assembly. The MDF top is nicely finished with mounting holes labeled for the different Dewalt Planers. As others have noted, mine also came with a lower shelf--a handy addition in any shop. I mounted the wheel to the inside as shown in the photo. It is very easy to lower and raise the wheel and, once mobile, the stand is easy to move around. Mounting the planer to the base is also easy and secures the planer nicely. Some say this is expensive, but I think its worth the price. It is only expensive in comparison to cheaply made alternatives that are not nearly as well-built or functional. I own Jet, Powermatic, and Festool tools--I'd put this stand in the same league as Festool for fit, finish, functionality, and value.

I am not using this stand for its intended purpose, I'm using it as a stand to hold my BambuLabs P1S 3D printer. I had been looking all over for a heavy and sturdy stand for my 3D printer, but also something that had a small footprint so that it wouldn't take up any more space than necessary. I took a gamble and ordered this, despite it not being for 3D printers, and it's absolutely perfect. Takes up very little space, has a shelf to hold extra filament and tools, and most importantly it does not move a millimeter when printing. The P1S printer creates a lot of vibration and motion when it prints, and yet this stand does not wobble or vibrate at all. If you are looking for a rock solid stand for your 3D printer, this is what you want.

This is very solidly built, with pre-drilled holes for bolting down dewalt planers. The stand is easy to move around yet sits solidly in place when lift wheel is lowered. The assembly instructions a worthless...when you begin to start assembly follow directions on a YouTube video and things will go together smoothly.

This stand is great, once you put it together. Getting there, on the other hand, is another matter. I'm not sure what's going on with this unit, but it's late 2013 and many of the problems that have been widely reported with assembly since at least a couple years ago are still present. Basically, the manual is junk...it won't make a bit of sense and if you follow it, you'll fail. Don't ask me why Dewalt changed the procedure and packaging and hasn't bothered to update the manual in over two years. Just don't even follow it, seriously...the screws are wrong, the procedures incomplete, the wording incomprehensible and there's a poor excuse for a diagram/picture. The stand does come together, and well at that, but it's a journey that manual won't help you a bit on. You won't have to physically modify anything to get there, either, as some have said in the past. The problem is with the base of the stand, everything else is fairly straight forward and would come together as you expect. If you buy this stand, head to Dewalt.com and look up the DW7350. Go to the FAQ section and click the link, "How do I put this $%&!# thing together?" Here you'll find a PDF with pictures of the base when fully assembled. Then, google "Dewalt 7350 exploded" and one of the first links should be for Dewalt's service center, where you can find replacement parts for this unit. On that page, there's a link for a PDF and there you'll find an exploded view (actually a parts list) of how it's supposed to come together. Some tricks? All four bolts in the bag "Base" actually do go to the assemble the base. The manual will have you put two of them elsewhere and it won't work out. Also, the four medium size screws look the same, but are slightly different...even though the parts diagram has them as the same part number. Near as I could tell, the two with the lock washer are used to attach the pivoting wheel and the two with the plastic inserts are used for the non-pivoting wheels. (You'll definitely need the 13mm socket and box wrench for this one.) Also, I found the top a bit tricky to get on because the holes didn't line up well. I found it useful to place the unit on it's side, press down the top/legs and then actually screw the counter sunk bolts into the top table, allowing it to fit through the mounting holes a bit easier. It took me four hours to figure this dang thing out. For that, it loses a star. It probably should be three stars, but the table is really well built and I suppose there's a muted sense of accomplishment once you complete the build. It's a robust stand, holds my DW745 planer perfectly (and could other bench tools too) and it wheels around smoothly. I like that they added a shelf so below the planer isn't wasted space. Overall, it's worth the effort and price...but bring your patience when you put it together.

This stand makes my planer a joy to use. I bought the 735 and for a month I used my Black and Decker Workmate as a stand. However moving the planer on/off the stand or just dragging the whole stand around when the planer was clamped to it quickly became a chore. I broke down and bought this stand and have not regretted it since. I bought mine about three weeks ago. Assembly is not hard. The base comes pre-assembled. The rest of the components: swivel caster, legs, top rails, mid-rails, MDF top, and mid-shelf you have to assemble. I did not find the instructions difficult. I read through them, dry-fit what I could and had the stand assembled in about 40 minutes. All bolts and nuts were included and I don't believe I had any left over. The longest part was deciding if I wanted to mount the swivel caster towards the center or out. Eventually I choose to mount it facing out. It sticks out a bit and I suppose it could be a trip hazard, but it seemed as if mounting it in would make it too cumbersome to raise and lower the stand. It is not shown in the picture, but there is a metal shelf included as others have mentioned that sits about mid-way between the legs. Once assembled I attached my 735. The stand comes with the bolts, washers, and nuts needed for this. The top was pre-drilled for it as well as the 734 (maybe the 733 too) and it is was simply a matter of lining everything up. Once everything was assembled and the planer mounted I took it for a spin around my garage floor. It rolled smoothly and easily passed over the seams in the floor. It is easy to raise and lower with the foot pedal and more important, easy to control as it is lowered so that it doesn't slam down uncontrollably. The two feet can be adjusted for level if needed. I like this stand so much that I am considering buying another or two for some of my other tools to mount them on. It moves effortlessly and it is so nice to be able to move my planer around to where I need it. It makes me want to use the planer more now that the inconvenience of setup and tear down has been taken away.

That is, I like it AFTER it's assembled. I swear the people who write these instructions from DeWalt are not good task analyzers. Or they just don't give a flying fox about their customers. I've done task analysis (instruction manuals) with detailed diagrams for 35 years. It's just not that hard to design a set of instructions thoughtfully and carefully, and, most of all - ACCURATELY. NOW STAY TUNED for the PROS; at the end of this little diatribe, as well as the single-most important piece of advice about DeWalt instructions. Here's just a few of the adventures I encountered. First, DeWalt must own stock in a plastic factory somewhere, because there is a LOT of plastic packaging here. Totally unnecessary, and absolutely damaging to the environment in several different ways. Second, they need to learn that if there's a special condition to an assembly step, it needs to go BEFORE the assembly step and not after you get it done! Third, the parts that are manufactured have holes that are not used. Didn't bother me because I've put DeWalt stuff together before but for a beginner or someone who tries to follow instructions, it's a problem. Fourth, the exploded diagram of the assembly is wrong. There are parts that show no holes where there are holes. Fifth, the diagram isn't shaded properly or lined properly to show if a flange goes up or down, etc. Sixth, the shelf that was in my box isn't a shelf. It's 3/4 of a shelf that goes fully from side to side, but leaves about 3-3/4 of empty space in the back and the front of it. I'll make my own out of plywood so I can utilize the entire space if I want to. Seventh, again having to do with assembly. The legs have to be assembled in a certain orientation so the locking bumps go at the top. But the diagram doesn't show that, and the instructions don't say that. They do say to utilize them later in the instructions, but if you put the legs in upside down, you'll redo them. Eighth, the top does not cover the entire space of the frame. No big deal in terms of function, but those exposed ledges are a great place for dust to collect. Ninth, the instructions themselves. The top is melamine and the user may want to protect it until the very end. So DeWalt decides to put the instruction manual in that plastic bag, where it might not be seen until the very end. I'm experienced in these things, so I saw it because I inspect every single part before I ever begin to assemble, because 70% or more of the things I buy need to be finished or altered in some way or another. Tenth, this stand needs locking casters on all four corners. In a tight shop, driving it like a forklift might be a little difficult. **** PROS **** And now, the good stuff. AFTER the assembly, this thing, while a little short, is a very solid unit that should work well for it's intended function. The parts are machined well (if not very good in terms of initial shapes and you ignore the holes that are there for no reason) and the hardware is quality stuff rather than crappy aluminum. The end result is a durable and very solid stand. Oh, the most important piece of advice I mentioned at the outset: Don't, EVER, follow DeWalt instructions. Look at the diagrams, remembering they are only 80% accurate. Search on YouTube, and use your own mechanical ability. It's a great stand and after a time it's one of those things that you just kinda forget you're using; it becomes automatic. I would definitely buy it again.

I bought this stand to use with my DW735 planner and after using it for five months, I have nothing but good to say about it. All parts are very well made and assembly is straitforward. The parts practically fall together. I have assembled many stamped steel stands over the years, and this was probably the easiest. The base has three wheels, two fixed and one castoring. The castor has a foot pedal to raise and lower the stand. The pedal is large and easy to use, even for people with big feet(like me). The pedal can be installed inside or outside the stand. Placing it outside makes it easier to reach, but placing it inside reduces the tripping hazard to people with big feet(like me). Moving the planner/stand combination by pulling on the planner handle is easy and there is no tendacy to tip. It is very manuverable. The stand is absolutly stable in use and I have never had problems with it moving when locked down. At first, I was concerned with the top. It is not as sturdy looking as the rest of the stand. I considered replacing it with birch ply or at least heavier particle board. But after using it a few times, I forgot about wanting to change it. One surprise with the product was the addition of a shelf that was not shown in any picture of the stand I've seen. The installation instruction for the shelf are on a seperate sheet, as though it where added after production began. How often does a manufacturer add something to a product? I've considered enclosing the stand with sheet metal and fabricating a door to create a storage area but I haven't done it yet. You could build a stand as good for less cost but who has the time? It's hard to justify the expense and time committment woodworking requires if all you build are shop fixtures. I'd rather spend my limited time in the shop building furniture. Gotta keep Mama happy!

This item is a terrific accessory to your planer. It will individualise the planer as a unit and allow for easy maneuverability. Solid unit. Also consider the entry and exit flat metal extention attachments, a seperate purchase. Will complete the entire package and is well worth it.

As the headline suggests, rock solid piece of kit. I ignored the manual and had a YouTube video running on the TV which guided me through putting it together. Checkout Jenny from the shop's video on how to assemble this thing. Also, I had clamps to help squeeze/expand holes into alignment (as pictured). There's no way of doing this manually while attempting to drive the bolts in. This is rarely available in the UK. I got it with free US import at £151 (July 2023), so hold out for the best price. Highly recommended, my planer is finally secure and much safer to use.

The Planer does exactly what it is meant to. The stand is sturdy and easy to move. The Planer (DW735) bolts right to the stand via the pre-drilled holes. Assembly is straight forward with easy to follow instructions. Takes about 30 minutes to assemble. The stand is so good, I bought a second one for my Jointer. Recommended

Solid sturdy product perfect for my DeWalt Thicknesser that bolted straight on. Easy to maneuver and a great addition to my workshop.
