A Goldilocks rotary table.
To me, this table is just the right size and weight, not so small as to be a mere toy, but not too large, heavy, and expensive for my simple needs. I have had it for three weeks now and decided to review it after completing my first project.When I first examined it I noticed that is seemed very well made and operated very smoothly. It definitely exceeded my expectations. I noticed it had a backlash of 20 minutes of arc, which I considered this totally acceptable. Accurate work is always done by turning knobs in one direction only. This table has a convenient knob to hold the position when it is reached. You can set the angle to about 1 minute of arc, and hold it there.For my first project I made a couple of simple fixtures. One was a centering hold down, the other was an aluminum sub base. This is especially useful for mounting the table vertically in my drill press cross vise.The project itself was a 2" diameter hub to mount an 8" sanding disc to a 1/2" shaft. The hub has 6 holes that I wanted to lay out precisely. Three holes run through the rim for set screws to hold the shaft. Three holes through the face attach the disc to the hub. Pictures of the hub and fixtures are attached.I am totally satisfied with this table and expect to use it often, both with my drill press and my milling attachment.

Not the best but you get what you pay for and it works.
Not a bad product. The degree angles don’t match the t slots so have to adjust for that but does the job.

Sloppy, wobbly, hard to turn
This thing is a pile of junk, not only does it have so much backlash that it is overwhelmingly dangerous to use in any type of mill, but the table wobbles like a drunk man. The table does spin, but takes much more force than expected. The gears bind and skip. Absolute junk.

Works Great
I adapted this to a small Emco mini lathe/mill. Works perfectly. Great buy for the $$.

Actually, it's not bad - once you adjust it to reduce the backlash
As received, this rotary table had an unacceptable amount of backlash between the adjustment knob and the table. This can be reduced by adjusting the knob so it has less "slop" between it and the main casting. Once I did that, the backlash is imperceptible. It came at the cost of some additional resistance in the knob action, but this was a fair trade off for the reduced backlash.
