You “added wheel” to the cart and it made it mobile?!!

What kind of wheel?
What size is the wheel?
Where did you buy it?
Swivel only, or locking casters?
You got nearly 3600 posts on here, should we not get some better clarification?

I really dont know what kind of wheels, but they swivel and are locking, I dont know much about the wheels because they was given to me.

Charles, having mobility for our power tools is almost a necessity for those of us with smaller shops. This is a nice addition to your shop since I am sure you do not use your planer every day. Putting it on wheels lets you move it out of the way until you are ready to use it again.

Nice job.

Good job! Now see about getting a shelf on those spreaders so you can use that space for storage… That would be a great spot to store sanders, or spare planer knives etc…

Good job Charles. Flexibility through mobility is the key to success in a small shop.
