Default Re: Attaching smart casters to a platform

BTW, a good rule of thumb is to; measure from the midline of the caster <swivel point> to the outside edge of the wheel. Take that distance and multiply it by 2.25 this will give you the size of the caster plate you need to cut so that when you mount the plate tight to a corner the wheel won't rub on the framing.
