Review: If you are buying for a SawStop PCS be prepared for some work with a grinder. - My setup - SawStop PCS 52" 3HP table saw - no the PM-3550 does not fit straight from the box, more later. Saw setup with original 52" extension. SawStop Router Table cast iron plate setup to left of saw blade - fits directly to left of saw blade with matched holes for bolting to saw cast iron wing. PM-3550 with two PM-3245 left and right. saw to blade right with 52" extension, PM-3245 fits straight out of the box with no custom fits required. Saw to blade left with router cast iron plate, PM-3245 requires modification. PM-3550 out of the box is to big for the SawStop. This was solved by cutting down the interconnecting light grey sections as I show in the video for both saw base depth and width - each light grey cross piece requires TWO cuts, one each end with a grinder thus maintaining the bolt holes as required whilst keeping the beam centered to the bolt holes. Note depth and width cuts are different to achieve the best fit. PM-3245 for router table support required one cut to the dark grey beam that connects to the leg support tray, I removed ONE bolt hole. The beam requires only one cut to the correct length, bolt holes are used at one end only to connect the two dark grey beams as shown in the video. A lot of work? No if you have a good grinder with a diamond disk. Took me about 3 minutes per cut including cleanup. The result - I am extremely happy. The SawStop solution would not have supported a left install on the router table as I desired. The saw is extremely stable - make sure you set the foot length correctly AND tightly snug the locking nuts of the adjustable feet (this is crucial to achieve stability). Also, not that I do not have the base fully weighted on the feet, they are sufficiently loaded to stop the saw from moving whilst maintaining some of the weight on the castor wheels, this seems to help with stability (significantly). For those that know the SawStop, the back wood table extension is there to stop interference from the folding run out table against the dust extraction duct when I fold down the table. I am very, very happy with the Bora solution and would recommend to anyone, yes it took some work with modifications to achieve what I needed, but technically it was simple and the solution perfectly fits my needs. NOTE - I have given 5 stars against ease of assembly because the modifications required were to a specific need and product. Straight out of the box, both products are simple to assemble.
Review: Great Mobile stand for heavy tools - UPDATE: I've had my 480 pound jointer/planer on this mobile base for over a year now and have started to notice the flanges where the wheels attach get in the way and do not allow the wheels to fully rotate when under weight. Not sure why because nothing looks like it has bent out of shape. Anyway, I placed four 1/2" washers between each wheel and its mounting plate raising the flanges away from the wheel. Now it works even better than new allowing me to change directions with very little effort when moving it around my shop. I understand Boar has come out with a newer base that has larger wheels that might avoid this issue. You may want to check that one out as well to see if it meets your needs. The Portamate PM-3550 PM-3550 Super Duty Mobile Base-All Swivel Wheels is an excellent mobile base. I received it in excellent condition contrary to some other reviews and found the base easy to assemble, though I recommend having two people available to get a heavy tool into place on the base. I put mine under a 480 pound jointer/planer and since all of the wheels swivel it is very easy to maneuver anywhere in the shop. The four leveling feet make it easy to stabilize the tool on an uneven floor. When the wheels are down just make sure all four pads are lightly touching the floor. Then when you raise the the wheels (which have an easy and light motion) the tool sits firmly in place without moving or tipping to any one corner. Even when under power . I looked at a lot of other mobile bases but this base with its large weight capacity, all swivel wheels and ease of leveling make it a great base for the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What’s the maximum recommended footprint for spanning extension rails and couplings on all sides of the mobile base? 44”x72”**
A: I looked in my book, but didn't have a size. The 2 rails are 20" and 2 are 25" with the end wheel frame 8"x8", and about 3" out where bolts go. hope this helps.

**Q: How much does it raise the power equipment above floor?**
A: Depends on how much gap you set the feet to have when on the wheels are down. I get between 0.25 and 0.5 inches

**Q: What material are the wheels made of?  I need something that will not disintegrate over time due to 115 degree summer heat.**
A: Hello, 

Thank you for your question.  Yes, as said below the wheels are made of hard rubber, non marring, 3-inch (7.6 cm), all-swivel, ball bearing with foot operated steel locking levers.

**Q: Do the pm-3036 extension rails work with the pm-3550 mobil base?**
A: Yes they do. I utilized this setup with one of my machines.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Customer Service
*by R***T on October 27, 2025*

Okay anyone can have an issue in the manufacturing process. I would buy from Bora again. The mobile base is an excellent overall product. I called Bora told them about the defective part. They asked for some basic information and they saw the issue apologized and sent a replacement part and I received it in days. They turned lemons into lemonade!!! Great Customer Service!!! Happy Day!!! Unusable for a smaller-sized base. The other (3) corners are fine, and the legs slide all the way in. My Laguna shaper is heavy in fact it came with cast iron wheels but only rolled in a straight line. The current base (while it went together easy) is slowly falling apart. This Bora base is very heavy duty, but in trying to get it together a lot paint is gone. Not used to having metal bits and and paint chips on my work bench and floor! It's been ugly!!! Happy Day!!!
