DEWALT 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 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.

I recently downsized my industrial sized planer to a Delta 22-580 in order to save some room in my now smaller shop and my plans were to build a small mobile stand however I couldn't seem to find the time so I decided to just buy one. I originally intended to purchase the Delta 22-592 stand however I found this one is identical sans the decals and the price was less (even more enticing was the DEWALT coupon from Amazon that gave me an additional discount). Everything was packed well and although the instructions leave a bit to be desired I believe just about anybody could easily figure out how to assemble this just from looking at the pictures. All bolts were marked in separate packages and assembly took less than 30 minutes using my 12v impact driver along with a 13mm socket and a 13mm wrench. I did not use the top that was pre-drilled for the DEWALT planers however I think that would make it quick/easy for owners of those planers to mount them. Once assembled I found the stand to be very sturdy, stable when lowered and it rolls easily over my not so smooth floor. The pre-assembled foot pedal operated swivel caster used for raising/lowering has the option of being mounted inside the stand or outside the stand. It would be easier to reach the pedal when mounted on the outside however that creates a possible tripping hazard due to how far the wheel sticks out so I mounted it on the inside. This proved to make it more difficult to reach the pedal (especially with the lower shelf installed) and although not mentioned in the instructions I just removed the c-clip/pin and flipped the pedal around in the bracket. This makes it very easy to reach and it only sticks out about an inch or so. All in all I'd say this is an excellent mobile stand that could be used with many different bench top tools and I plan to purchase at least one more for a 12" disc sander.

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.

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 had bought a Dewalt DW734 planer and was planning to make some sort of wooden stand. In searching for some ideas, found that this metal stand existed. The price seemed reasonable enough to avoid the bother of making my own. It looked good in the picture, but I expected something fairly flimsy. Instead, it was much heavier gauge metal than I expected and parts were very strong even before assembly. After assembly, it was rock solid. It is also larger than I expected so it is not prone to tip. The assembly plans and actual product didn't quite exactly match. I suspect the design changed from a pre-assembled base (in the plans) to one you assemble from four pieces (you figure that out for yourself). It has an interesting foot operated lever to lower a wheel and slightly raise one end off its rubber feet to allow easy rolling. Again, I had low expectations but it works superbly. However, a shelf (something else not in the plans or the Amazon picture and I suspect not in an earlier version) pretty much blocks being able to use your foot as intended. But it is very easy to operate by hand as very little force is needed to raise or lower it. Or I suppose you could just leave the shelf off but it may be adding a little strength. Also, the bolts to mount the planer were too short for my model. Perhaps that is from another change in the planer base design or they fit another model. But anyone capable of using a tool like this should be capable of going to the hardware store to buy four bolts. The only improvement would be to update the plans and provide mounting bolts for any model they say it fits. But those are minor things. This is one of the best quality and best values of anything I have purchased in a long time.

Boy am I pleasantly surprised. This thing came packaged with all the high-quality fasteners in bags labeled for each setup process. The nuts and washers were all already threaded on to the correct bolts. I particularly liked that ALL nuts and bolts are the same wrench size (13mm) for everything. Everything lined up perfectly, went together easily and was a pleasure to put together. Kudos to Dewalt for the thought they put into this. When assembled, it is solid and has no problem holding my DW735 planer. The top is already drilled and labeled for the Dewalt planers. When you assemble it, you have the option of putting the lifting wheel on the inside or the outside of the frame. I decided to use the inside, but it is not easy to get to it that way. When the stand is lowered, the pedal for raising the cart onto the wheel is very close to the middle shelf. If you will be frequently moving the cart, I might suggest an outside mounting. I won't be moving it a lot, so I'll keep it inside. [Edit: I followed the suggestion by James L. Morgan in this section to reverse the pedal. It works really well. No longer a problem thanks to him.] Be aware that the two casters on the side opposite of the lifting wheel do not pivot, so moving it into a tight spot is a lot like doing so with a tool cart that only swivels on one side. Not a big deal for me or most people. I like it so much I just ordered another one to use for my Cutech jointer.

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.

Súper funcional y práctica un complemento indispensable

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.
