Yeah the base is a little flimsy but works awesome. I have not had any issues with excessive heat. It's a nice addition to my wood shop. The tilt table is a great feature as well. I am just making knife handles now.

Triton TSPS450 Final Thoughts
"The Triton costs less."
Yeah the base is a little flimsy but works awesome. Did not power on when it arrived. With a coat of paste wax, it's smooth. Great customer service from Triton. Had to go out and purchase a 30 MM and a 1 1/4 wrench.
