    I agree - could almost shoehorn something that size into my shed!

    Hi all, I ditched the last cheap Bunnings rollers for another (cheap Bunnings) type - the blue type I showed in some pics in a previous post had no great way to secure them to the machine so when rolled across uneven floor they tended to lose their orientation or slip out alltogether.

    I did this instead:

    I've since build the machine up again since I took these pic and, in operation, having them sidewards as Michael suggested means no movement at all in the cutting direction. Nice.

    Greg.
