What's a good source for leveling feet?

[ryan.s]

I'm planning to make an outfeed table and want to level it with the table saw. Where's a good place to get the feet that you can set the height by screwing in or out of the leg? Do the big box stores carry these? I checked rockler and didn't see any. Amazon has a couple but they're like 15-20 bucks each. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I just ordered these from Rockler
http://www.rockler.com:80/product.cfm?page=383

and also looked at these from Woodcraft

I intend to use them to level support legs under extension rails on the BT3100.

Thanks Steve, I guess I was searching for the wrong thing on the rockler site.

I got the last ones I bought from McMaster-Carr. Do a search for 'leveling feet'. Different types and come in a 10 pack for about the same as Rockler gets for 4.

I'll look for the receipt tonight and give you an item number of the ones I bought.

You could use a simple leveler and a tee nut:

If you are sinking the foot into a hole in the leg ...

Here are some more options at WoodCraft. I used #B recently. Swivel foot. No bracket. Nylon pad. $5.50ea.

This is similar to non swivel feet that I have bought at Lowes in the specialty hardware drawers in the fastner aisle. Lowe's feet do not have bracket. Use a Tee nut.


^^ The $1.00 swiveling leveling feet posted by Cabinetman are better

I couldn't find my receipt or packing list but I'm pretty sure the ones I have are McMaster-Carr part # 23015T63.

shopnotes has a article about shop made leveling feet let me find the mag with it in it and see if they have it online or not

i found it vol 14 issue 84 but they dont have it online wish i had a scanner now LOL

pretty simple acouple of scrap blocks, a t-nut,a bolt, 2 lock nuts ,and a couple of washers

Basiclly each level consists of 2 parts a pad and a thick mounting block that attaches to the bottem of your base by turning the bolt that passes thru the the center of each piece, you can raise or lower the pad

hope this helps

Ryan, also check the BORGs. In the hardware aisle I know they stock furniture parts and there should be leveling feet.
