Threaded Stem Caster Installation 

I love it when John Goodman can teach me how to add wheels to my Monoblock chairs while I work from home.

Great video...direct to the point, detailed and free from all BS!

I finished putting the casters on my new crafting table (after cutting 11” off). Your video instructed me perfectly on the installation. Thank you 😊

That was so useful! Thank you. I’ve been trying to figure out how to add wheels to my ikea table to make it a bit taller and this answered all of my questions about the process! Now I just need to buy the wheels :)

Thank you very much for the demo and explaining all the steps and name of the supplies (i.e. T nut).

Useful. The tape on the drill bit was a good tip. Thanks.

Ok, I see that this does technically attach a threaded caster wheel to the leg, but to me it seems that the only thing holding that wheel I. Place is the prongs on the tee nut. What is stopping that tee but from falling out the second any weight is placed on the wheel, more directed at lateral pressure during the process of rolling around a work table. I thought tee nuts were designed to be drilled and placed on the opposite side of the work to be threaded so that the bolt pulls it into the workpiece.

That was extremely helpful, thank you for taking the time to make that tutorial.

Absolute beginner here. This video was perfect. Only thing he forgot to mention is that if you have a 5/16 caster wheel in diameter, the Tnut size has to be 5/16 as well. It may seem like common sense but just in case someone gets overwhelmed when they get to the Tnut section at the hardware store.

The only thing holding the caster to the leg (vertically) is the four small metal knife cut-outs on the T-nut. T-nuts are supposed to be used on the other side of the workpiece so that the bolt tightens the nut against the wood and motion parallel to the bolt axis is not possible. In this instance, if you hold the wheel and pull the chair up, you've a good chance of dislodging the wheel. I'd use epoxy at least to stick bolt / nut on but that is a "duct-tape" solution.

Thanks for the Video, casters is what I'm installing in an old Oak desk chair, but I might have to go to Thread Inserts, as the holes have been wobble out and the T-nuts won't work. But you video gave me an idea if the Inserts won't work. Thanks. Good Video.

Thank you sooooo much, I thought I brought wrong wheels and can’t be use, then I saw this video, you save my day...

I was striking out on 1/2 in hex drive inserts, dont think they exist. These should work! Thanks!

Great demo! The guy's accent sounds all shop teacher like.

You should be using threaded furniture inserts instead of T-nuts. With a T-nut if the caster gets caught up on something while the leg is being lifted vertically, the entire assembly will come right out.

I’m hearing John Goodman

Thanks. This was really helpful for my mobile woodworking projects.

Perfectly easy to follow instructions :) Thank you so much!!!

Thank you so much for this video…it is exactly what I needed to finish my project 👍🙂

This video is so freaking helpful!

Simply awesome! Thank you. God bless!

great video, we're the caster producer and exporter since the year 2010. welcome to inquiry and order

Great vid.

Very clear and precise, thank you!

Техника безопасности на грани фантастики. Сверление в воздухе - просто гениально. Закладную вбивать на весу - вовсе верх... даже не знаю верх это чего. Чувак, ты знаешь такие слова как верстак, тиски, перчатки?

Thanks 🙏

Ty so much!

Thx a million for this video!

I have a caster with an m6 size threaded stem with the corresponding t-nut. What is the diameter of the hole that should be drilled to account for enough space for the t-nut, but not too loose that the threaded stem might have too much wiggle space in the hole? What is a good rule of thumb?

thanks man, just what I was looking for.

This is exactly what I needed to see, thank you!

Nice video, can I ask why you use the smaller drill bit first before using the larger one? Why can't you just go straight in with the 3/8

Thank you so much for the video as it was really helpful.

I love how u sow us,thank

Thanks, this was really helpful.

Thank you! So helpful.

thanks from 2022， t nut is the thing i need

Very helpful video. Thumbs up!

Thank you for this video!

Very helpful! Thank you!

How do you know what size T nut to buy?? ( I have 2in stem casters)

Absolutely excellent !!

Great Video, thank you.

Merci

Very detailed, thank you!

Great video, thank you

Thanks very much for the video. I do have a question: When you're drilling without a jig, how can you make certain you are drilling parallel with the table leg? Is eyeballing it adequate?

Thank you! This helped me.

"hand tight, that should be good.." How are you actually supposed to tighten casters like these?

Thank you!

exactly what I was looking 4

Choice clip..easy peesy🎉

Ah TNut! Thank you

thank you!

so helpful!!!

I'm wanting to put these in a prefab laundry table, made out of pressed board and formica. Should I use a different caster setup than what you have in your video?

thinking about not placing the bit into my hand!

Thank you

thanks helps a lot !

Thank u

I wish I knew how to do this for my sofa. I want to make my sofa higher, but it's on push in casters. The legs I want to buy are on threaded dowels. I don't feel confident about doing this myself :(

I have 2 older chairs that have the old ball style casters that are 2" they have the 1 1/2" stems on them, is there a way to put a larger caster on this chair so I can get it a little taller?

what wood is that???

How do you remove a Threaded Stem Caster?

Worked great, thanks!

Why not -- after accurately drilling an appropriately sized hole -- just thread the stem into the wood like a wood screw?

Stodoys has a lot of designs to choose from.

where do I get the T nuts or the threaded furniture inserts?

super helpful. thanks

Brilliant.

Niiiiiccccceeee!!!!!

super helpful

Great Video!!!!!

How to fit caster wheels to a go kart

Asinine to drill a hole the way this fellow is doing it. No amateur is going to able to get the hole square and true doing it the way the demo shows.
