Repurposed medical ultrasound cabinet. Bought from a surplus store.
Started like this:
Modified to this:
With the restored Atlas TH42 mounted:
Works for me.
It's a heavy bugger (all 1/8" tube and plate steel) and the medical grade casters make moving it around smooth and easy. Full ball bearing wheels and some kind of rubber product that is solid enough not to deform yet soft enough that it grips whatever floor surface they’re on like they’ve been krazy glued in place.
They're also strong enough that they don't move or even wiggle when locked. In fact, when they’re locked, I’m pretty sure you’d have to hook it up to the truck and take a run at it to get it to move. They’re that solid when locked. Guess having medical equipment jerk or move around when in use is a bad idea. Medical grade stuff just doesn't mess around.
Lots of options out there, you just have to keep your eyes open and dig around in those "not so common" places....
