    Nice looking bench. A question for you and the others on the casters. When you only have 2 that lock do you put them both on the same end, same side, or opposite corners?
    Thanks

    Mike, Look at the photo and you can see that both of the swivel casters are on one end, and the fixed casters without locks are on the other end. For me the table sits very stable when locked, but some may prefer locking casters on all wheels. (I use the table on a carpet in the shop.) Since I bought the 5" casters on sale for $3 each I have no complaints and a big grin on my face after that sale. ( I bought all they had - 2 sets.)
