Built by a contractor who got tired of fighting his stand.
MiterTop started on a job site, not in a boardroom. Every decision — from the extrusion profile to the leg lock — was made by someone who's spent years doing this work for real.
The problem with every other stand
Matt Fisher had been doing onsite construction for years. He'd tried every portable miter saw stand on the market. They were slow to set up, flexed under heavy saws, rusted out in a season, and felt like compromises — like nobody who actually used one had a say in how it was designed.
So he built his own. Starting with first principles: what does a contractor actually need from a stand?
From prototype to production
The answer was 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum — rigid enough for a 500-lb load rating, light enough to transport on site, and corrosion-proof by nature. The extrusion system was designed to extend to a full 22 feet with no sag.
Matt partnered with Brad Canull — an operations and manufacturing leader — to build the infrastructure to make MiterTop real, repeatable, and built to last. It's manufactured and assembled in Lancaster, PA.
Why we built MiterTop
"MiterTop exists because the right tool didn't. Not as a side project or a business idea — but because someone was standing on a job site, fighting a stand that should have been better, and decided to fix it. Every contractor deserves equipment that respects their time. We built one stand, we built it right, and we built it to last."
