I am very pleased with my DXE tilt base. Works as advertised.
Just make sure you pay attention to the Inside/Outside diameters
of the pipe you mount it on. I had to drill it out to accommodate
a 2" galvanized water pipe. I told the sales guy I was using
"2 " galvanized water pipe"... and he said it was fine... but not really,
and the user guide is ambiguous - referring to just "2" pipe" in one
place, and then referring to requiring "2" OD pipe" in another.
The sales guy says he has a yellow sticky note on his computer
screen to remind people about it (so you know I am not the only
one who did this...) but fat lot of good that did me when he
did not mention it!
Other than that... works swell. REMEMBER - MEASURE TWICE
AND CUT ONCE.....
