I like your roller base. I made similar base but the rollers must be too small because it is not easy to move. What size rollers did you use

Ed, we used to build these things to display new boats in our showroom, and quickly learned that anything less than 6" wheels on the casters created problem. We finally settled on using soft rubber 8" casters, with locking/swiveling casters at both ends, and carpeted bunks. We also used 2"x8"x10" PT (or Wolmanized) bunks, and added a cross-brace in the middle to prevent horizontal bowing.
