Impressed with the Centipede
I rarely leave reviews, but this Centipede is impressive. It's so easy to set up in just a second. Surprisingly stable and holds a lot of weight. I use it daily. Oh, and while using it, I remembered I need to restock the fridge.

Great quality
Buy this now. This is the most versatile work station you will ever use. Don't let the price fool you. It is a bargain for what you can do with it. Change the size, change the layout, add pieces, this is a game changer. As a professional the uses on the jobsite are endless, as a diyer, this thing will be more handy than anything you have in your arsenal and it stores away anywhere. It takes up minimal space and will never be in the way yet expands to a 4 x 8 work space. Absolutely love this and is the best value for the money I have spent, the saw horses haven't been used since the purchase.

Nailed it!
The Bora Centipede is one of those "Where have you been all my life?" products. I knew that I would be buying one (or more), and it doesn't disappoint. However, it took a great deal of deliberation to figure out WHAT to buy. I'm adding my thoughts to the huge number of (well-earned) positive reviews in the hope that they may be useful to you if your finger is twitching over the "Buy" button because the devil's in the details. I have several use cases for this, but highly portable assembly space and/or cutting surface and the need to break down sheet goods into more manageable pieces are at the top of the list. I'm fairly tall and like a taller work surface, but I ultimately opted for two of the 30" version without Bora's folding work surface. Here's how I got there. The Portamate can only be used at full extension, so a 2x4' one can only be 2x4'. While I needed a 4x8 space for my second use case, 2x4' seemed far more practical under more circumstances, so I bought two. The supplied lumber brackets let me tie them together into a single 4x8' "surface." Each one comes with 4 brackets, so if this is something you may want to do, buy another 4 brackets to provide better support in the center. With these, your own lumber and a sacrificial sheet of EPS, you have a "track saw station." I opted for the 30" stands because oddly, the 36" models are not available with bags. Yet. The stands come with a fair number of accessories and I wanted to corral everything in its own bag because this reduces the likelihood of my leaving something behind at a job site. Also, for the second use case, 30" is plenty of height. Bora does make height extenders, but I have passed on those (for now) because the reviews seem to indicate that they're fiddlesome. What I bought serves my needs very well. As many others have noted, this spindly looking contraption is a sturdy beast that deploys and recovers in seconds and disappears when not in use. The Centipede work stand is an absolute gem. So, why didn't I buy the work surfaces? This is NOT a review; I don't own the work surfaces and cannot speak to their quality or utility directly. These are just my thoughts. My reservation is primarily around shipping. The design seems sound; their ability to fold makes them take up half as much space when stored or stowed. But they're MDF. If the shipper drops the heavy box on a corner, the MDF gets chipped or broken. If they drop it on the wrong corner, the work surface may be unusable. I may buy them in the future, but only at a retail store or once I see reviews that indicate better protective packaging. More than likely, I'll make my own. The work surfaces are also available with dog holes or dog holes and T-track. Note that they're available with Imperial or Metric dog holes; reviewers who complained about the dog holes being too small bought the wrong one. The ones with T-track come with a hefty price tag, but if you don't need to make precision, repeatable cuts, the system is still a disruptively priced, highly mobile assembly space. Assembly space is baked into competitor systems such as the more expensive Kreg ACS and the wickedly more expensive Festool MFT, but those are better cut stations. Overall, while the work surfaces would complete my Centipedes, MDF is "chippy" and insanely heavy compared to Melamine laminated plywood. The fit and finish of Bora's products is generally very good, but in my view, their choice of material isn't great in this case.

Quick and easy setup, solid portable workbench
Really easy to use and the table is sturdy with a top. Pairs well with the BORA Centipede Workbench Table but a piece of plywood works well too. I'd like to the metal connectors that run diagonal between the stilts to be more robust, they're thin and flat and could be bent; they're still good quality though. Happy with the purchase.

I wish I had purchased this sooner
This Bora Centipede opens from a 12" x 12" x 36" tall soft side bag to a 4' x 6' support frame ready for a piece of plywood or other top. For the time being, my shop consists of one half of a two car garage with most of my larger power tools on rolling stands that I bring outside to use. The one thing that was lacking was an area or support to use when breaking down 4' x 8' sheet goods. This well priced work stand not only solves that problem, but is super strong, and closes up ready to go back in the bag in 15 seconds.

What a great innovation!
One of the most useful inventions I’ve ever used for shop! First project is cabinet out of 4 x 8 sheet plywood, using the 4 x 6 Centipede and it handles the sheet & cutting. Easy to set up configure and breakdown. Especially useful if you’re do-it-yourself landlord, gives you easily transportable work space across multiple properties…we have a home in FL and NC and can easily move the centipede to both. Very happy with this item!

The only thing you would have to regret about buying a Centipede is that you didn’t buy one sooner!
This gadget is so handy and easy to use. It looks kind of flimsy but it’s actually very stout and makes a firm work bench or work table. I use mine mostly for cutting up 4 x 8 sheets. With a spider accessories you can add two by fours in different ways which enhances versatility. I hesitated buying it but once I did I wish I had bought it sooner. I recommend the 6 foot model - it’ll handle a 4 x 8 sheet very well with only a foot hanging off each end. But it’s so versatile there are many things that can be done with it, whether you’re working in the field on site or in your shop. You’ll never regret getting one!

I have had my eye on this for a couple of years but they were always sold out. Fairly light weight and supports 2 tons provided it is placed on a flat surface. It come with 4 clamps, 4 plank holders and a storage bag. Only down side is there is no instruction manual or list of accessories.

Al igual que el de 12 soportes, es una herramienta imprescindible para tener un banco de trabajo portatil
