Casters

[DavidR8]

Made some threaded inserts so I could put casters on my shop stool.
Just some 6061 turned down to a press fit into the leg, 1/2” showing, tapped for 3/8-16.

It’s projects like this I feel most grateful for having my machine tools. To be able to whip something like this out and fix something that you couldn’t find anywhere is priceless.

good job.

It was a very satisfying job. I think perhaps because there were no gotchas

gotchas are what keeps us growing,
but it sure is nice when things go right!!!

Curse them gotchas! Besides making me feel stupid because they are always preceded by “just”, just gotta do this or that. But 50% of the time I can’t get there from here because I either didn’t buy the right tool or don’t have it. And 50% of the time I can find a creative adaptation and dodge the gotcha. I applaud those who dodge the gotcha!

Nice job, but remember our ol' Goat's advice... Be careful planting your arse on it always.

You bet I will!
Been there, done that. Might still have the bruise!
