What We Like
  • Expands from a 6-inch bundle into a rigid 2ft x 4ft (or 4x8 supporting) steel strut work support in 5 seconds
  • P-tops absorb accidental circular saw blade kisses without damaging teeth or sacrificing stability
  • Holds up to 2,500 lbs of heavy sheet goods, live-edge slabs, or framing lumber without racking
Flaws But Not Dealbreakers
  • Requires placing a sacrificial 4x8 foam insulation board or plywood top to serve as a continuous solid bench
  • Dirt and gravel can work into the bottom pivot pins over time, blow out with air compressor periodically

The Straight-Shooter Take

Breaking down 3/4" 4x8 sheets of Baltic birch or MDF by yourself on traditional sawhorses is an awkward balancing act that invites binding, blade pinching, and ugly edge blowout.

The Bora Centipede completely changed how we handle full sheets. It unfolds accordion-style in literally five seconds into a steel lattice of support columns. Throw a sheet of 1-1/2" rigid foam on top, and you can make track saw or circular saw plunge cuts anywhere on the sheet with zero sagging and zero kickback.

Where It Earns Its Keep

  1. Unrivaled Weight Capacity: Multiple flexible steel struts distribute load across dozens of contact points, easily holding 2,500 lbs of rough-sawn lumber or engine blocks.
  2. P-Top Protective Caps: Durable polymer tops support the workpiece securely and wont ruin your expensive Freud or Diablo saw blades if you nick one.
  3. Instant Compact Storage: Collapses down to the size of a folding camp chair and slips into the included carry bag for trunk transport.
