    Using a ladder to lift the saw is an amazing solution that I can’t believe I never thought of! 👏

    Enjoyed! Sweet & clean. Love the yankee ingenuity on eliminating the unnecessary locking mechanism from the casters on hand. Harbor freight sells 'em with/without locking mechanisms. Ladder hoist tip, good to keep in mind...

    Thank you for this very detailed instruction video! Your teaching style is great. Now I can put wheels on the antique Craftsman saw I bought. :-)

    You are the best. I wish I could thank you in person. You have made my MILLENNIA. I have three of these units or saws and this is PERFECT.
    Exactly the idea I've been trying to setup. I'll let you you know when I've completed these. TY YOU GET ALL THE CREDIT.👨‍🔧😉

    This is beautifully elegant. My dad and I are building something similar based on this. Thank you for sharing!

    I liked your idea so much, I bought the plans. It will be the first project in my new garage workshop. I do wish that in your materials sheet you had a shopping list of what to get and from where to make it easier. My local Lowe’s does not have 4in non-caster wheels. I am forced to make the casters rigid with two bolts on either side. Thanks and keep up good work!!

      Mr. MacDonald;
      In addition to building two "sets" of Mr. Holmgren's Caster set-ups, I have fitted casters to a LOT of shop equipment in my Automotive Restoration Garage. I fitted a pair of "swivel" casters and a pair of "fixed" casters under the first shop item I built, a "Mig Welding Cart".. After that, I ONLY fit "Swivel" casters under ALL FOUR CORNERS! It didn't take long to figure-out that, in tight quarters, only having one pair of "steering" wheels can make positioning an item a royal PITA by repeatedly moving it back and forth until it's where I need/want it to be.. By having all four "steering" wheels, I can move a 4" x 8" table (with a Snap-On Engine Scope and Accessories) into any space/position, often within the area of it's own "length/width"!! Hopefully, Food for Thought. Chas.

    Thank you Carl. On your table saw, what is that box between your TS dust collector box and above your caster mechanism?

    • @CarlHolmgrenwoodworking
      @CarlHolmgrenwoodworking  Před 2 lety +2

      The box below the dust collector hopper is a single large drawer for saw blades, dado blade set, etc.
