Adding Locking Wheels to a Cast Iron Grinder Stand

Harbor Freight used to sell the same grinder stand as the Grizzly H7763 where the base is a hollow casting, complicating wheel mounting. Most stud mounted wheels only have a bit over an inch in stud length and more than two inches plus an enormous fender washer would be needed to mount on this base.

I made aluminum adapters to go from the 1/2"-20 wheel studs on the 4 in. Hard Rubber Heavy Duty Swivel Casters with Brake Harbor Freight Item #90999 to a 3/8"-16 tapped hole. The adapters are about two inches long and easily clear the the hollow casting. The mount is very solid but the assembly is top heavy and a bit tippy but still works well with the wheels locked.

    It is wise to get in the car and get accustomed to all the buttons and its functions before taking the car out. Different cars have different options, so you better get used to the options before starting to enjoy it. Luxury Car Rental Miami
