Rolling Heightened Table Shoes
Wanted to raise up my folding craft table and be able to move it and stabilize it more.
Supplies
Scrap 1/2" Plywood
Tape Measure
Wood Glue
Wood Screws
Drill Bit
Screwdriver
4pk 2" Casters Wheels (the only thing I had to buy, $13.49)
Cut Plywood
4) Side Pieces 22 3/4" x 8"
4) End Pieces 8" x 2"
4) Bottom 24" x 2 1/2"
As you see in the photo I am not hugely precise.
The sizes may vary with different tables.
1) I drilled the holes to the Side Pieces and End Pieces.
2) I placed the pieces next to each other so the holes lined up.
3) Then I added glue and then screwed them together.
4) Next I drilled the holes one set of the Bottom Pieces and the already made pieces.
5) I repeated set 2 & 3.
6) I screwed to Casters on the remaining bottom pieces.
(I added this extra piece to make the height I was looking for, add stability, and to make it easier to attach the casters.)
7) I drilled the holes to the both the Bottom Pieces.
8) I repeated set 2 & 3.
Mine fit snugly, so it had to be tapped into place.
It made the table legs way more solid than it was.
And now I can easily move it around without my craft falling off.
