I don't have the proper terminology for things, so don't laugh at my description.
I got a couple of set of casters from Rockler when they were on sale. I thought they'd be the screw in types with the plate, but it's the type that has the bolt-like part instead. I didn't want to send it back and pay for the shipping, so I thought I might be able to use it somehow.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can use it with the little wooden cabinets I'm building for my tools? It's easy to figure out the screw-in type, but I'm not sure about the bolt-type. The bottoms of the cabinets are made of 3/4" plywood. Do I add another layer of plywood? Do I use some sort of insert that have threads? Do I make the base wider and deeper than the cabinet body to accommodate the casters?
It's hard for me to google something when I'm nomenclature-challenged. Was hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
