Super happy with how this came out. I designed this quite a while ago and FINALLY got around to executing it.

What are the casters rated at and where did you get them? I need to replace the ones I have, after it sits for awhile it is a little hard to get moving.

I built a wooden version and used those 6" Horror Fright swivel casters.

I like them alot........It rolls "almost" too easy now ;)

Very nice job sir!

I love how compact it is, and those gray "alignment doo-dads" are pretty sweet!!!!

Looks like I am going to have to "step up my game" a little to keep up with the "big dogs";)👏
