shop fox mobile base replacement casters?

[Aaron Heck]

Movers used the Shop Fox base on my bandsaw instead of a dolly as instructed. These bases are not meant for that kind of moving around ;-) I replaced the wheels with the steel ones since I had such good performance from them on my planer. D4175 and D4176.

nice, thanks. I guess the steel rolls around ok on bare concrete? I'm guessing you wouldn't want to use those on a "nicer" shop floor.

They roll very well on my typical residential garage floor. If my shop floor was pretty I would not use them. I have rolled them over plywood lying over bare ground without issue as well. They obviously don't offer much give but, seem to roll right over random saw dust drifts, dirt, and curlies. I don't move the bandsaw all that often so I went for longevity. These will never grow a flat spot ;-)
