Yes, I'm lucky to have a Thunder Laser 130W machine in my workshop at work. IMHO a stand like this is almost a must-have when building a larger model, especially in a small space.
As a result of my first {NZMAA mandatory build inspection for "large models"} I was required to beef up the undercarriage mounting area - Just thought I'd share that.
