Mobility and Versatility Combined!
The JET JMB-UMB Universal Mobile Base has been a fantastic addition to my workshop, offering both mobility and versatility for my heavy machinery and equipment. This mobile base has made moving my tools around the workshop a breeze and has truly transformed my workspace.One of the standout features of this mobile base is its adjustability. It can be easily expanded from 18″ x 18″ to 28″ x 28″, making it compatible with a wide range of tools and equipment. Whether I need to move my table saw, planer, or bandsaw, this mobile base can handle them all with ease.The build quality of the JET JMB-UMB is exceptional. It feels sturdy and robust, capable of supporting heavy loads up to 600 pounds. The solid construction gives me peace of mind knowing that my valuable tools are secure and stable while in motion.Setting up the mobile base was straightforward. The assembly process was well-documented, and all the necessary hardware was included. Once installed, the base glides smoothly on its heavy-duty casters, allowing me to effortlessly maneuver my tools across various floor surfaces.The foot-operated levers for raising and lowering the base are a thoughtful addition. They provide quick and convenient height adjustments, allowing me to position my tools at the desired working height without any hassle. The locking mechanism holds the base firmly in place, ensuring safety during operation.Another notable advantage of the JET JMB-UMB is its compact design. When not in use, the base tucks neatly under my machinery, taking up minimal space in my workshop. This feature is particularly beneficial for smaller workspaces where maximizing floor space is essential.One small improvement I would suggest is adding rubber or non-skid padding to the base’s contact points. Although the base is well-designed to protect floors from scratches, a little extra grip could enhance stability further.In conclusion, the base has been a game-changer in my workshop. Its adjustability, solid construction, and smooth mobility have simplified the process of moving heavy machinery. This mobile base is a must-have for any woodworker or DIY enthusiast looking to enhance the efficiency and organization of their workspace. I highly recommend it for its quality and value.

very sturdy base
This base is very easy to put together. NO tools are needed and is heavy duty and easy to roll around with a heavy tool on it. It has locking casters that are easy to use

DOES NOT FIT JET FLIP WORKBENCH! (Great otherwise.)
A very well-built product and much easier to assemble and use compared to some of the other “universal” bases out there. This was sold as a bundle from Amazon with the flip table. Both assembled easily and were sturdy. Problem is, the base is too small for the workbench they’re selling it with. I reached out to Jet in case I was crazy or had put one of them together incorrectly. They confirmed these two items are not compatible.

Do You REALLY Need It?
At first, when considering my JET BAND SAW purchase, I was pretty sure I didn’t need a rolling base. Then I thought, How am I going to move the saw around to its final resting place with BRUTE FORCE? I am not someone who has ‘brute’ built into my physique. So the ROLLING BASE became part of the picture. The saw is top heavy, the rolling base is sturdy, but not ROCK steady. You can deal with that with home-made shims. The base has wheel locks that are OK….. not industrial. And lastly, putting the rolling base together was very easy.

We’ll see…
So far so good, but I have to say I have a bad feeling that the welds that hold the wheel brackets to the frame will not stand the test of time. The wheels themselves could be a better grade and I would have spent an extra 25 bucks on them if they were. It does what it says it will do, move my 450 pound Jet Pro-shop table saw around. It was easy to assemble and came with clear instructions. I might buy another as my needs grow but my shop/garage doesn’t. Before I bought this product I did look into building my own and of course alternative mobile bases. I decided it would not be worth the time and hassle to build my own with out access to a full metal shop. And as for the other bases, they rely on 2×4’s or some drilling and mounting of mechanically complex wheel mechanisms. As we all know the fewer moving parts the longer the machine will last. No tool is perfect but this comes as close to it as I need. The easy assembly, mechanically simple and sturdy design, and relatively low price point, especially when compared with any D.I.Y solution, make this a good bargain. As for those welds, we’ll see what time will tell.

Versatile and HD
This is one of the best mobile bases available today and it has been for the past several years. Easy to assemble and adapt to most machine bases. Rolls easily and great for DP’s. Has a low center of gravity for tall tools. Ve had several over the years and the quality is always the same. Hopefully Amazon continues to carry this product.
