Hi all, back again.
I have some 12' tall, 10' wide, hard cover Broadway flats mounted on the DS edge of a 1' wide wagon. Framed out of 2*2 with trundle casters. I have flats on the on and off stage edges but I'm still getting some shimmy when we push them in their tracks. We've tightened up the knife tolerance so my only thought at this point is sandbags on the wagons and maybe a diagonal brace from the top of the flat down to the wagon in the center.
I can attach an image if this explanation is unclear. Just trying to figure out if I'm missing something else obvious I could do to combat the shimmy and top heaviness other than more wagon weight and that brace.
