I bought my band saw from Sears. The band saw table legs had holes for casters. I bought a set of casters that included two which could be locked. The saw is stored out of the way and rolled out when I need to use it.

I found these simple plans for a roll around stand for bench top tools with plenty of storage space underneath to boot. I keep my Byrnes equipment on it. It's in the garage for summer, but soon will go into my basement shop. Just a few 2 X 4's and some plywood. the most expensive part is the casters! I plan to build another one because it has proven so useful. Takes an afternoon to build. Stationary full sized power tools make it a snap, but it can be built with hand tools only.

Notice my 1974-1/2 MGB in the background? It's the first car I bought new! Still runs like a champ!

This movable stand looks realy useful.
I am more in the age of a MGA! So I need already some repairs - born in 64......
