--- Quote from: eds1275 on November 27, 2014, 09:47:24 am ---For my build, I used counter sunk lag bolts to connect hockey pucks to the base of the cabinet and then put adhesive felt pads on the bottom of the pucks. It slides nicely and doesn't scratch, but the weight of it keeps it in place when playing. For my piano, I use furniture sliders which are smooth plastic discs with a cup in the top where the wheels fit. In most hardware stores you can get casters of varying sizes with a grey, non-marking rubber. It is softer for exactly your purpose. --- End quote --- That hockey PUC idea is great. I keep the furniture in my bedroom permanently on furniture sliders because I have laminet flooring. |

I use these levelers with rubber casters and wheels. If the cab is standing it is very secure and stable but when tilting it on its wheels it's very easy to move it around... |

I have the same setup with wheels in the back and levelers in the front. Especially with a pedestal, it should then be easy to just lift the front and wheel it out of the way. You can get non marring locking wheels and non marring levelers. The non marring ones are typically off white in color as opposed to black. |

That looks like a good setup. I went with 4 swivel casters and it is really easy to move the cabinet around....too easy. On some games the cabinet doesn't roll but it does rock/sway a little bit even on a carpet. So I would recommend against doing what I did. |
