I am working on the design for an under assembly table cabinet. I am thinking that it should be mobile, as everything in my shop is to this point, and I think it'd be useful.
I currently have a set of Rockler locking casters that are not purposed, but they have a limit of 110 lbs each, totaling 440 lbs. I am suspicious that it may not be enough. My assembly table is 3' x 4' made from top and bottom skins of 3/4" mdf and a grid internally of 1/2" mdf, with red oak trim. I suspect that it weighs 100lbs or so. Then figure in a project weight, which can vary, and the cabinet weight, as well as stuff in it. I guess I'm just looking for input from anyone with thoughts or who have done this sort of thing to see if I'm overestimating the weight needs here.
