jan1919 Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 I'd like to move my wheel between my studio and the driveway on a regular basis. I've looked at power tool mobile bases but they are all rectangular and I would think the width of the base would get in the way of my feet. I'm worried that just using locking casters would make the wheel slide when I'm working. Have any of you figured out a way to easily move the wheel while still keeping it stable when working (that hopefully doesn't require a lot of wood working skills and equipment which I don't have...) Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark C. Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Build a wood platform with rolling castors-get two of the 4 castors that lock. Done deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The non locking ones must not swivel as well, otherwise he will chase his wheel side to side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much! You may want to look on Amazon for some economical retractable castors if moving it in and out is a regular thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jan1919 Posted April 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 The retractable castors look perfect because yes, with hopefully decent weather, moving it will be a regular thing! Thank you both for your help! Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
