Woodworking tip: How to put your workbench on wheels for easy mobility. Castor wheels make moving a very heavy bench easily. Link to free music: / @musicforcreators
I liked your idea enough to stand down from my commitment to shut off RUclipsrs that cant get the audio and camera work right - it just amazes me. However, I still gave you a like for the content.
Whenever I need to make something for my shop I either sit down with paper and pencil think about and draw schematics on how to build it myself or I just look it up where a smart guy like you has it figured out already.
I like this design. I just got the casters the raise/lower one at a time by stepping on them. Yours are tucked away very nicely where mine stick out a bit.
Excellent video and process. I had a way to lift the work bench but was thinking of a practical way of securing the lifting arm. Thanks to you, Sir Genious, you have shown me my practical solution. You have a subscriber for life. Thank you for sharing. You have the dream work shop. Much success in the future.
Nice job! Simplistic and effective. Would love to have seen more detail around cutting the square tubing and fitting in the bearing. Maybe a diagram for that. Possibly even a reference to the size bearing you used.
Gracias Amigo,me ayudaste a solucionar un problema con el traslado de mis bancos de trabajo,soy maestro de 65 años y 40 de trabajo y sigo aprendiendo gracias a internet y personas como usted,buenas personas que comparten sus conocimientos y habilidades,que dios te acompañe a ti y tu familia,un saludo desde CHILE,adios amigo.
Terrific design, simple and I love it. Can you please provide plans for it? After several hours researching all of the great ideas online your lifting mechanism would best fit my needs. I am new at woodworking and now building a multifunctional workbench that can be moved from an outside gravel surface onto my concrete carport floor using 5" w/brake casters. Keep up the good work. Thank you
Very clever design. I have an upcyled file cabinet from the 60’s I use as my lathe cart. It has something similar, but they are independent and come out to the side. Makes the protrude too far. This setup would be great.
Awesome! Thanks for the great design tip. Definitely doing this for my new work table. I'm curious what you used for the center pivot point. It's hard to see what the rounded part between the two washers is or how it's attached. I also assume those are standard 4" stainless door hinges. correct?
Did you weld a small plate on the end of the tube for the threaded rod that acts as the catch? Also the pivot bolt in the center just drilled thru the tubing??
Love your wood workshop!! I'm in the basement of our house, in the unfinished part of the basement. Yeah, I know it sucks, but I'm doing the best that I can. Mostly living through what I see on RUclips, however, I do small repairs and little projects. I find myself trying to actually get my small time shop set up. Spending most of my time building things for my tools so I can build stuff. I'm from Ontario Canada and I came across a product that can make all tools POP! and Look sharp in the shop. I like to pass along good things that I come across even though I don't have the product myself, I'm just a too small time shop if you could even call it a shop. Here is a RUclips to check out., it's called, "Lean Manufacturing - Organizing Drawers - Kaizen Foam Tips - FastCap" - video title. Give it a go, on RUclips or even check it out on Google. With a SHOP like the one you've built for yourself, You'll love it. Cheers hope you like.
Hi Bob. Thanks for the comment. Yes I did. I started with smaller wheels, but it couldn't take the weight. I have all my machines on mobile bases except the saw, which I don't move. Do you think videos like this are useful? Cheers. Louis
LDB Woodworking I absolutely think this is a useful video. It took mobility to a new level. I have not seen any homemade systems that were not made of wood. I would like to see how you made it!!!!
Hi Bob. I do not have footage of this, but plan to change my mobile base of the bandsaw to work on the same principle, because just to have this on wheels causes a lot of vibration. I will do a video on the build of that one. I also did one for the Jet jointer planer that works on a screw mechanism to lift the unit. I could do a video on that one? I normally weld the frames myself and didn't think that people on a woodworking channel would get a lot of use from that. What is your thoughts about having welding on this channel when it is part of making a mobile base?
Hi, I would be interested in seeing how you weld it so I may be able to replicate it without welding. I also think it is the best mobile base I have seen. You may want to look into manufacturing and selling it.
Bob Bailey I can take one side apart and put it together step by step and make a video of that? Then you should be able to replicate it easily. The challenge was not the making but rather the time to figure out what will work. The one on the bench requires no welding at all. Just cutting and some drilling. Would this beneficial? If so I can try over the weekend. Please let me know. Louis
Hi Nanette. I have a close-up photo for you but I dont know how to share it with you on youtube. Please get on touch on louisdebruyn74@gmail.com so I can send it to you. Thanks. Louis
Nice work but the music was too damn loud, when I turned it down and you started to talk again couldn't hear you. Y not make the levels match or remove the music? Thanks for sharing...
Hi Bill. Thanks for the feedback! I did acquire a mic recently which should help with my audio. I will try not to get carried away with the music going forward😉
plainwornout3 first thing I noticed. The rest of the video I was so distracted by that. I hate flip flops no matter what but definitely hate to see them in a shop
Could you please tone the music down next time, please? You have a rather specific accent and it's hard enough for non-native speaker to understand without the music playing louder than your voice. Thanks
misschien ook maar zoiets op het afkortzaag station proberen. Zelfs na het eruit halen van alle laden en de afkortzaag zelf +de bovenkasten is hij nog steeds haast niet te verschuiven. Tja degelijkheid he..
Bedankt voor de reactie. Ik hoop dat het voor u werkt. Mijn Bench is zeer zwaar-binnen houd ik de shopvac, lasser, CNC-machine en de lades bevat zware dingen ook. Maar zorg ervoor dat roestvast stalen scharnieren te gebruiken. Laat het me weten hoe het uitpakt. Cheers. Louis

excellent video, I have seen many videos of the retractable wheels and this is the best so far
You just saved me A ton of work! Thank you for the idea
I like this design. I just got the casters the raise/lower one at a time by stepping on them. Yours are tucked away very nicely where mine stick out a bit.
Thank you so much, great solution.
Thanks, very clever lifting system
That's a tip of a lot more than a week.
Very impressive!

Cool man. Always great to hear when someone finds the videos useful! Thanks for watching and all the compliments. All the best to you. Cheers
Very Nice idea and installation!
Thanks for the kind comment. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers
Hi Louis nice video thanks. Nice bench too.

Baie goeie idee Louis!!
Very nice design
Thanks! Appreciate it
great idea,well made and thought out , love the accent
Cool thanks Malcolm. The South African accent comes free of charge....😂😂Thanks for watching
Did you weld a small plate on the end of the tube for the threaded rod that acts as the catch? Also the pivot bolt in the center just drilled thru the tubing??
What country are you from? Thanks for the video.
Dis baie cool love dit
Dankie Dirk!
I wish to buy those casters but they are so expensive in our country. It costs a lot really.
Sorry to hear. In my market they are cheap. Around $6
@@LDBWoodworking Lucky for you sir. Our sellers here sell it for about 175 bills for a 3" casters way too expensive. Some are even higher.
Great idea! However, as a shop foreman, I HATE flip flops in a workshop! Home or at work. Be safe.
I agree. It is a bad habit I am trying to break. Thanks!
Hi! Could you tell me where you bought the wheels and the frame, and how much weight can they carry, please?
Thanks in advance
Wheels are from Gelmar. I believe the weight is rated 60kg per wheel
Eerste hier. Lekker Louis
Thanks ou bul!
Hi Louis
Are those prescription Saftey glasses you are wearing
Hi Dave.
Yip, indeed
Ja Swaar ek mis die simplified Suid Africaner approach - sommer lekker om you accent te hoor - alles van die beste !
Lekker man! Dankie vir die goeie wense. Groete daar.
@@LDBWoodworking kom kyk as jy wil op my website www.aerglideusa.com, maskien is daar ideas wat jy kan gebruik :)

This was great. Did you make it?

would like to see that bolt in the middle that acts as pivot.

n boer maak n plan 👍🏼
Great idea but keep us informed how long that plastic block works for ya just kidding no need to I do really like the over all idea though
How much does your workbench weigh?
Hi darryl. Not sure about the weight, but loaded with the tools it us gery heavy. I would take a guess at around 350kg
You might want to get rid of background music in your future vids. I could only hear half of what you said.
Nice work but the music was too damn loud, when I turned it down and you started to talk again couldn't hear you. Y not make the levels match or remove the music? Thanks for sharing...
Hi Bill. Thanks for the feedback! I did acquire a mic recently which should help with my audio. I will try not to get carried away with the music going forward😉
Just put the subs up...
Great idea. However it doesn't show how they r made, only how they work....
No Flip Flops in the Shop. Going to roll that Table onto your Toes or some other mishap and that's gonna smarts.
plainwornout3 first thing I noticed. The rest of the video I was so distracted by that. I hate flip flops no matter what but definitely hate to see them in a shop
@@SolasChristusMinistry Hell, I saw a video the other day of a guy in his machine shop working and he was bare footed. Stuuuuuuupid!
Yeah someone else who sticks the end of their tongue between their lips when doing a task like bench reposition manoeuvres!😀
😉
Good Thing! Please sirch off the music! Thanks
Could you please tone the music down next time, please? You have a rather specific accent and it's hard enough for non-native speaker to understand without the music playing louder than your voice. Thanks
Apologies. I will try to take better care of it next time. Thanks for the comment. Louis
I did it myself. I used Woodprix woodworking plans for this.
That won't lift my 800 pounds table saw :(
The music is annoying, unnecessary, and detracts from what is otherwise a good presentation of an excellent idea.
Thanks for the feedback. I was trying different things, but I got the same feedback from others as well. I will not do this again in future. Louis

Buy a floor rug to kill the echo & loose the music dude....the audio is terrible.
Nice video and idea, but turn out that f### annoying, disturbing "music" totally unnecessary!
Blimey mate, lose the music
Dude, lose the music. Or at least turn down the volume.
Thanks for the comment.
annoying music
