WorkMate Upgrade - Wheels or Casters - Simple Hidden Hands Free - 71 

Ha, you got that right. You must have had that experience yourself. Have a good one.

Your idea will work just fine. So does mine. Perhaps you didn't notice I already have mdf on the lower shelf to catch stuff. The 2" edging on the plywood would make the base, which I already trip on, even wider. The number 1 spec was for the wheels to be out of the way. In oak, tapped end grain is plenty strong. Plus, there is zero tensile force and near zero shear force on those bolts. They will be there at least until I retire from woodworking. Thanks for watching.

Thanks

You are welcome. I love how easy it is to move around now. Did you see my video where I replaced the top? It was video #3. Thanks for watching.

Thanks.

Thanks

You're welcome. Thanks for watching.

Thank you. It has been working great.

Thanks

Thanks. True normally, but threads in oak work fairly well.

Add some drops of fast glue (cyanoacrylate) bevor threading into the hole and let it cure. It stabilizes the fibers.

Well, mine is not easy to carry. It is heavy, and I hit my shins while doing so. Maybe the newer, cheaper ones are lighter. Of course, I don't know which you have. Mine is an original. Second, I don't have time to fold it up and put it away. I use it constantly, and I need it here and there and then out of the way of something else. This is becoming my living, and my shop is a dedicated space. If a person works in the garage, and has to make room for cars, absolutely fold it up and out of the way. Thanks for watching.

It's for moving it while it's in use. When you are working in a small space, you find yourself moving things around a lot. And I believe many people who use workmates work in small spaces.

@@clementm5417 Exactly. 👍

Thanks, and good point. I can't fold up the legs. I didn't think about it because I never do. I use it a lot all around the shop and never put it away; the wheels make that easier.

Thanks. That is a Hand Tapper. I got it from Grizzly. It's great. It keeps the tap straight and doesn't wear me out.

For tapping into the wood, I would have chucked the tap into a cordless drill. With the predrilled holes the tap will self align and go in straight.

@@artie191 as the flesh drill fits into the pre drilled hole in the girls. No need to align. Self aligning. Works every time. Lubricants are important. The girls I drill are self lubricating. Like it 🥰

Thanks.

Thank you for watching my videos. I was out of 3/4" long screws, but I did have 3/4" long bolts. I didnt want to stop working to go to the store, and holes tapped in oak are pretty strong.

😩 Absolutely. It wobbled all over at first. Thanks for watching.
