Mitre saw stand upgrade.

I recently bought a cheap mitre saw stand which i really quite like except for 2 things:
- It has no wheels making moving it around with the saw attached really difficult.
- It does not have an adjustable foot which results in the whole thing rocking if it's not on a even surface (which i have none of)

Hence the upgrade.

I started with cutting four wooden blocks, one shorter than the rest and drilling a 38mm hole in the middle of each one.

Marked a cut line on some wheels.

And cut to size.

Mounted the wheels to the block at 90 degrees to the ground, as the legs are angled outward from the saw. and added 2 screws that go though the block of wood and into the leg to prevent the block from rotating.

On the short block i tapped a M12 thread to allow for an adjustable screw in foot thing.

And project complete!

Some thoughts.
I could have mounted the wheels under the blocks of wood which would have been easier, but they are currently mounted slightly of the ground and they only contact the ground when the end is lifted making for a more stable work surface.

I didn't appreciate that the legs are angled and i now have a only the pointy ends of the wood in contact with the ground. I should have drilled the holes at the same angle as the legs.
