I would rethink that... even if the wheels have brakes, it won't be as solid as if it was standing directly on the ground.

Pretty much done with the bench. Broke the collet on my router so haven't got all the "plates" for the presses made yet, but have a new one coming. And, need a few more small hardware pieces to finish. I think it's going to work really well. I'll do a couple pictures when I'm finished and explain why I did it the way I did and how this went together.

You outta know by now at your advance AGE that no project of this magnitude can be done without at least 3 trips to the hardware store. :P

And it could be closer to 5 trips when CRS sets in.
