Stanley 93-292 FatMax Mobile Project Center 33-Inch Tall Clamping Work Bench and Hand Truck
The Fat Max Mobil Project Center arrived with a plastic part broken in transit, but the Stanley Company sent a replacement on request. Unfortunately, it will be almost impossible to disassemble the work table in order to replace the broken part. So, I used epoxy glue and hope it holds.
Easy to assemble and use. I am not a fan of plastic for these kinds of things but this item is okay for using pastic.
Fairly stable as a workstand and vice. Somewhat cumbersome as a hand truck. Still, it’s nice to have both features. It arrived with a crack in the plastic around the outlets but I glued it.
I’ve only had this a couple days and It’s already paid for itself. I would have rated it five stars but taking it out of the box I noticed a couple small plastic spacers located where the A frame comes together were split and one half of one spacer was never found in the box. Structurally, this is not a problem as long as the remaining portion of the spacer stays in place. For one side I was able to put the pieces of the spacer together and use narrow electrical tape to hold it together. For the other side I probably could have wrapped tape around the half spacer and the pivot rod but I decided since I had the stuff to do it with to make a new spacer using epoxy putty.
Aside from that small detail, it’s quite rugged and great in the shop or on the go for all kinds of projects. It takes only a few seconds to go from hand truck to work table and back again. As a hand truck it’s okay but it’s probably not what you want if you need a hand truck every day. For my use, having only an occasional need for a hand truck it’s great. Mine will almost always be in the work table configuration in my shop.
Overall this is well built and sturdy. Pretty heavy though. The table is good and the vice usable. The indoors only is due to a dubious electrical one plug to 3 gadget, that frankly I would not use indoors. A simple clip to hold a heavy duty cable or GFI cable would be much more useful. I could not get the cotter pin into the axle hole even with considerable pressure from some very large vice grips so IMHO with the cranks on handles not lining up I can’t give this really high build quality rating–not bad at all though.
Where this is most useful is for an occasional set of tools like a cordless drill/saw/etc. set which can be stored on the dolly and then wheeled into position for use. Overall this is to heavy for the dolly feature to be really useful. Pretty good but doesn’t knock my socks off.
