Title: leg levelers
Post by: Nefesis on July 20, 2004, 08:32:36 am
i was looking at leg levelers and the weight and cost of each and wasn't sure which one i needed to put on the bottom of my cab. if i have 4 levelers and each can hold 200 lbs each, can 4 levelers support 800 lbs? i was looking at happs levelers that are under PC Arcade-Accessories (by the way, how do you put a link here to happs products? do you just put a link to the price page?). i'll be building the cab from LuSiD's plans.

What are you building that's 800 pounds in weight?!  :o A pool table?

don't forget there's occasions you may need to rock/wiggle/walk  the cab on one or two levelers to get it into or out of a particular spot (tilting it back onto castors or a hand truck also places it on the back 2 levelers), so the whole weight of the cab would be on  one or 2 levelers for a few seconds..:-)

200 lb ratings wouldn't be out of line imho....
