    I have also had good success with casters from Caster Depot, specifically the FootMaster Leveling Casters. The Woodcraft ones were very disappointing for me as well.

    Tried the water bucket for a week with no results. Bought a $3 rat trap from the hardware store. Caught nine chipmunks & two field mice in just over two-weeks.

    I used a scrap piece of mdf, coated with some leftover poly for 10-years. It held up well while being subjected to thousands of passes. Once in a great while I would wax the mdf bed.

    The only thing that makes it worth the $$$ is that it works. It is just a piece of plastic with grab holes which is sized correctly. I tried a couple "homegrown" solutions (cardboard, scrap Formica)...
