Has anybody attached castors to the bottom of the legs?

Not sure of the thread size. But it is a good sized stud going up into the bench leg. As long as you could match the thread size with the castors I'm sure it would work great. Nice bench, love it, very HD, has worked great for me so far.

Seville makes and sells wheels for this bench, 2 of them locking. Installing wheels also gave me more clearance under the drawers for an adjustable shop stool.

No i haven't...you probably have to find the correct screw type. It would make the work bench less stable

Yes. I used a small wood block to hammer in the casters to prevent damage. No problems

It comes requiring assembly, so you could leave the castors off. The castors thread into the base, so you may want to get some sort of pads with the same bolt size and threading. The clearance of the base tubing without the castors looks to be a bit less than 1.5 inches. I checked to see if there was anything else on the base that would make it sit funny if you didn't have the castors on it, and I couldn't find anything. The stand is quite beefy and solid. I've been pleased with it.

As it is, no. My husband and I have discussed the possibility of replacing the top with a piece of another material (granite?) that would hang over one end, allowing some leg room for a seat.

The "legs" are positioned on the outside of the bottom piece within the groove located there. Once the top is in position, they will be secure. Be Patient!

I did not attach legs to the bottom of this planter because once you fill it with the soil, it becomes very heavy. I put it on the floor of my patio and the plants grow very well. Actually I use it as my kitchen.

Yes it comes with both, the option of castors or solid feet. I am not sure but I remember if you use the castors the selves hold less weight. That is why I went with the solid feet option.

yes, I've tried putting felt on the bottom, which didn't work because there was not enought area to adhere the felt to. our chairs have been moved to my gardening room and our garage...

Make sure you have all 3 (or more) legs attached to bottom. Mine only came with 2; had to throw it away.

I don't think that will be a problem. My chairs arrived with black plastic plugs or inserts on the bottom of each leg. Feels like either plastic or nylon. The bottoms of legs are flat, so felt could be attached. Hope that helps.

I'm that person. First I just drilled holes in the base and attached the bolt-on casters. But because the base has a slight cone shape to it the casters kept breaking. So I cut a round piece of plywood, fitted it inside the base flange and then put the bolt-on casters on. Been good ever since. You could try the push in casters but there's nothing to hold them unless you add plywood. Probably best to use the bolt-ons.

No they do not. You get what it's in the picture. You may have to drill holes in the bottom of the sofa and attach with washers and nuts to get a secure fit. Otherwise the legs will be wobbly. Tried using the hardware that you hammer in once the hole has been drilled and it doesn't work as well.

Absolutely, but I added castors to the 2"X4" lower cross member. There is exactly 1.5" from the floor to the bottom crossmember, so I cut a short segment of a 2"x4" and attached it to the bottom of the crossmember, allowing me to add retractable wheels.

I think I had to attach the legs. This item is made of very cheap almost cardboad like wood. It was damaged in the box during transport.

I haven't tried that myself, but I suppose you could. If I was going to do anything to these, it would be to lengthen the legs. Then, I would add pulls and wheels to the bottom (trundle) to make it easier to move in and out. Those are easy fixes, too, I think.

I encountered the same thing with the holes on the small side. Because the legs are bamboo and I didn't want the fibers fraying and splitting, I did the best I could to make sure it was line up in the holes as much as possible then used a rubber mallet to gently knock the legs into place. A few fibers did split off from the leg but I clipped them and have had no further problems.

The legs have metal or plastic caps on the bottom - it slides around quite easily already. But if you really wanted casters, I'm sure you could add them if you drilled the holes first!

Yes. I laid mine on a love seat with the bottom on the arm of the seat so the bottom was angled upwards for easy access. The process of securing the feet is not exactly an easy one. The fasteners are a very very tight fit. So, I used a cordless drill with screw adapter. This made it fast and easy. Careful not to strip the screw heads if you do it this way.
