This video describes a foot-operated system of easily extended and retracted casters for my power tools. My shop is in a 2 & 1/2 car garage. When our two cars are parked inside, all tools must be stowed against the walls. With cars outside, the garage becomes my shop and when I want to use a tool, I can move it away from the wall, as necessary, in seconds.

I very much appreciated the fact that you bothered to pick up all these heavy machinery just for us to give us great end easy to build ideas. Thank you
Absolutely blown away by the simplicity of your design. You, sir, are a genius!
Most likely an engineer.
Back again mobilizing more things for the workshop, utilizing Carl's design principal.
I see 47 people upset that they didn't consider logic!
Thanks again for making this video Carl.

Thank you so much for this.
Men like you are what we need more of.
Ha...Ha.. Way to go Mr Carl... Simplicity at it's finest.. I'm sure you have some great videos, showing the simple ways to get the same things done the rest of us have done a good job complicating.. Thanks for the video, and taking the time to show the simplicity and Genius of your designs.. Kudo's... I'll be watching all of your videos to see what else special is hiding in there.. Ha..Ha.. :) Thanks again Sir!
Simply the most elegant solution I have yet seen to a problem we all have!
Thanks for sharing in such a lucid manner. Your installation methods are what caps the method and raises the bar to true ingenuity.
I have a few mobile bases that need your method. Thanks again.
Wouldn’t it be better if someone built a bracket that the table saws leg would slip into and the bracket had a hole in it for a wheel
The simple and least complicated solutions are always the BEST solutions. Excellent!
Who seriously disliked this video?
What tools...this chap is brilliant!
Thanks for showing us this, will be copying your design!
I am shocked just like everyone else! I can't believe it's so simple and works so smoothly! I'm going to attempt to make one for my old Delta table saw I'm renovating! Thank you for taking the time to show and describe how you did each one. You really are talented!
Wow! What a great system! Just watched 20 videos on making your own retractable casters and by far yours is the best! You are a genius my friend .Thanks for sharing! :)
Great original solutions. Good videos. The best on you tube for serious woodworkers with small / garage / basement shops.
This is a lot more useful than the majority of retractable caster videos which self-indulgently show some yahoo sawing and screwing for 10 or 15 minutes. Thanks.
Very clever and oh so simple. Thanks for sharing a solution that many small shop guys are seeking.
Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) is something we don’t do these days. Too many people over-engineer their designs but these are simple and elegant (definitely not stupid). Kudos sir. I will be copying them for my new router table.
Your skills are amazing and ingenious! Reminds me so much of my father. Plus you are so very generous with not only explaining how they work, but also taking your equipment apart to show your work. Thank you for sharing this. I have so many ideas for my small garage shop.
This is the best system that I have seen yet. I bought the plans. Thank you Carl.
You Sir, are a genius. This is exactly what I am looking to build for my tablesaw.
Mobility engineering level: Genius
Incredible! You, sir, are a genius. Excellent design on these and an excellent walk through as well. Thank you so much! I'm must finishing building my small 14'x14' wood shop and want to put everything on wheels so this was super helpful.
Sir, you are indeed a master. Just now found this. Thank you for sharing.
Great German engineering! I have never seen so many tools crammed so neatly in a garage!
A Very smart and Humble Man; thank you for sharing your knowledge for all to learn!
Thank You for sharing your ideas. This is the simplest solution to the problem of moving heavy tools around.
When I served my Carpentry Apprenticeship, I wisely (in hindsight) chose to work with the older guys on site. They were in their 60's and were practical blokes just like you. They showed me shortcuts and skills that they had learned over the previous decades. I look back now and treasure those times and greatly appreciate the knowledge that they shared, again . . . just like you.
great solutions. simple and effective. easy to rebuilt and adapt. greetings from a young german woodworking beginner!
Thanks for showing everyone your ingenuity. I now have some ideas for my shop!
Thank you for sharing these Carl, much appreciated.
You are surely an engineer such ingenuity with your concepts
One of the most useful videos I have seen on TH-cam! Thank you very much.
What patience! Bravo.
Brilliant! Thank you for sharing all of these, Carl!
Thank you for sharing your very smart and simple design. I say simple because it is easy to use not because it didn’t take a lot of design thought. So well executed. I have to keep rewatching your videos so I can figure it all out. I like how you modified each one for the specific tool and the individual need. Bravo! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are a master.
Brilliant, thank you for these ideas on how I can make my woodworking workshop more flexible and easy to manage!
Excellent design Carl!!
Great ideas Carl. Thank you.

Carl, THANK YOU for taking the time to show us all this ingenious, elegant and adaptable system! You may have single-handedly saved the backs of thousands of fellow craftspeople and maybe prevented a few hernias too!
Absolutely ingenious! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Carl. I was really disappointed with the off the shelf retractable casters. You approach is perfection. Thanks again.
Thanks, Carl!
Love the Shopsmith, btw.
