Leg levelers -> casters

I sorta like the idea of putting 4 casters on and then using a piece of wood to lift the cab off the casters.  That would only require removing the wood for full mobility.  I was really hoping for a solution that didn't require cutting large holes in the cab since I then have to basically gut it (saw dust = bad for electronics, saw dust in house <> happy wife).

I looked into appliance dollies and they are an option for large moves, I just don't want to damage the floor really.  I'm not looking to do a bunch of moving, but if I need to gain access to the back, I don't want to lug out a dolly to do it (or fear a tear in the vinyl floor).

If all you want to do is spin it around so you can access the back, have you thought about those super sliding discs?  I have 4 under mine and I can slide it around pretty easily but even rough arcade play doesn't budge it.

That's what I used at the old location.  The teflon pads work great on carpet, but I wasn't sure if they would damage vinyl if there was dirt or sand on it.  Seems like it might scar the floor pretty easily with that kind of weight.  I thought about felt pads, but I can't find ones that seem like they would work very good.  What do people with hardwood floors do?
