Wheels / Leveling

Made some more progress on my table assembly this weekend, one more weekend and should be ready to cut!!

Wanted to share my wheel / leveler feet setup.
Here are the wheels I bought:

Also needed these M10 to M12 adapter studs.

The studs are a bit too long for the wheels… using two nuts (that came with the wheels) and a lock washer (out of the obligatory coffee tin of extra hardware) as a spacer to keep the cuts consistant.



After cutting the studs, removed the extra nut and lockwasher, inserted the stud into the wheel until it seats then tighten the Jam nut locking it in place.

Then applied some locktite and screwed the niw assembled wheels onto the legs (with the stock inserts)

x4 and done… then have a cold one… or two. :beers:

I think you have done a great job theoretically. I do worry about the torque/leverage that will be applied on the single bolt (and the insert in the leg bottom recess) when wheeling the table across cracks and hitting a piece of sand on the floor. If you are moving the table for short distances, it will probably work out fine…just move slowly.

I do have wheels, similar to yours, but I opted for the plate attached design. I welded a plate with holes to mate up with the holes on the wheel assembly.

yeah, I hear ya, however, our shop floor is pretty smooth, and im only making it roll for the off chance I need to move it out of its future home for maintence or cleaning.

It should live on its rubber feet most, if not all, of the time.

Perfect! I roll mine 40 feet every time I use it. So far, so good for me. You’ll be fine.

Did your table stay square after install of the wheels?

I have had zero issues with the table staying level so far. :beers:
