Looks good Ed..

Wheels look fine to me , 4 times the cap. they should hold 600 libs. or so.
To bad you don't have a router to put in a pocket hole to recess the wheels into .

and to get the mass of table down closer to the center of gravity

Well, one of the things on this thing is that 2 wheels have brakes....if it was lowered, how would I access the break function?

Thanks BJ,

Ed.......:-)

Hi Ed

Details,details,details

you would not put the intire wheel up inside the hole...just a part of it,,,it would at like a pocket hole for a hinge, it's not the screws that hold it , it's the pocket hole that takes the load..

Most wheels have the brake lever on the lower 1/3 of the wheel...setup.

Looks like that should function just fine for you Ed.

Good job

Hi BJ, Ken,

Thanks both of you. I think I got what you're saying BJ. Well I'll try it like it is for now and if I don't like it, I'll see if I can figure out what you're suggesting.

Thanks again,

Ed......:-)

Good lookin' saw Ed. I'm sure you are going to get hours of enjoyment out of it. I like the base with the shelf... extra storage.

Hey Bj. Why don't you show Ed how to put a brush on the lower wheel to keep it clean. If I remember right you have one on yours???? Thanks.
