Hi Max Another approach is use an old Ironing Board with the cloth top taken off , this can quickly adjust to many heights as required. If you had two ironing boards they could support large sheets as they are passing through the saw. When not in use can fold away. In fact my mate uses his when he is working on Car's, he has it along side the car to put his tools on. Regards Ray

Dale has expressed some frustration with the typical roller stand you can buy at almost any home improvement store. Last week I saw one of Norm's TV shows in which he stated the same problems. That is, more often than not the piece of wood coming off the table saw knocks over the stand instead of going on top of it as it's supposed to. Well, Norm has come up with a solution. It's two tall wooden boxes that slide together with a floor stand on one of the boxes and 4 rollers on the other. A threaded rod runs vertically through the whole thing which is arranged for a height adjustment. It's heavy enough and has a large enough base that it shouldn't be easy to tip over. The only thing I might change when I build mine is to make the roller closest to the saw lower then the one next to it and each one just a little higher. Come to think of it the top could be made to pivot so the rollers could be all on the same level or each one just a little higher than the one before it. Whachya think of that. Regards. Max.
