Tools and Hardware Reviews of LegUp 58008 Panel-Lift Table Saw Accessory

Customer Review: Not so great
Summary: 1 Stars

I make custom cabinets for a living in a one-man shop, so I keep my eye out for ways to make my work faster, safer and easier. Based on the Leg Up website video it looked like it met all three criteria for handling sheet goods.

What they don't show is how it works when there's a table extension to the left of the blade (demostration video shows using the tool on the left side) or how to use it to the right of the blade for ripping - you have to wrestle the material over to the fence (while the saw is running), line it up with the fence, then make the cut. The video also shows the Leg Up leg falling free of the material as it's rotated onto the table saw top, but this doesn't always happen with the table extension in place.

Also, the tool is only helpful for cutting sheet goods in the long direction, not for cross cutting. And while the tool is well made, I expected it to be beefier. Currently it's best function is to hook my pants at the ankle as I walk around the left corner of my saw.

In summary it's overpriced for what it does: it doesn't do that function well, and it doesn't do much else (except hook my pants).
