Harbor Freight Moving Dollies...

[JR49]

I personally don't care for machines on wheels, but I understand the need in some cases.

I don't have casters or wheels on my 12" Logan, and didn't feel the need for them on my new (still partially boxed) PM 932, as once set up, I will probably never move them. I did, however, have, what I think is a pretty good idea when making my riser base for said mill. I made the threaded part of the adjustable feet long enough so that, if needed, I can raise it just high enough to slide 2 HF dollies under, and lower it on dollies. If my wife ever lets me out in shop again (had health issues from playing to hard making the stand), I'll take some pics of it. Also plan on doing a post about the new mill. Happy Machining, JR49

My mill is on a caster stand, but it's not as stable as I would like. I think I may make a simple riser that will let me run a pallet jack under it. Might be a better solution than dollies, except for having to store the jack when not in use.
