--- Quote ---How well does 4 casters work out on hardwood or another smooth floor? Carpet may hold it in place, but does the cab tend to walk around on smooth floors? Also, how do you level the cab with 4 casters? Well, leveling isn't necessary, but perhaps the cab would rock if the floor isn't level, and that's where leg levelers would come in handy. Does anyone have any problems with 4 casters and rocking? --- End quote --- I've put caster on about a dozen early 80s cabs and never had a problem. As long as the floor meets normal building standards, I've never seen any rocking problems. If you've got a dirt floor in an old barn, then you'll have problems. As has been mentioned many times before, the best solution for stability is to use two locking casters on the cabinet. Once they are locked, the cabinet will not move during play. |

bvicarious, that's awesome. But would seem too elaborate to build unless you plan to move the cabinet a lot. And actually woudn't the back bottom corner scrape the floor while rolling it? And as for adding lockable caster, I don't want to make the wheels viewable. They would be low enough to reach the floor obviously but there would be wood trimming in front of them low enough to keep them out of view. But doing so would make the lockable moving part of the caster useless since they can't be accessed without lifting the machine. |
