How are the casters connected? Can they be swapped for other ones?

They click on. Super easy to install. I'm not sure what kind of other casters you have. But if they have some sort of clicking mechanism then maybe???

I am having problems putting the wheels/casters on the bottom. They don't seem to be clicking?

I have had no issues with my wheels; however, I am not rough with my equipment. Replacement would require that you be a little handy with tools. You can find caster wheels at Lowe's , Home Depot or here at Amazon.

Yes..you will need to attach the caster wheels to the main frame...it comes with a hardware assembly kit, however you will need to use pliers (not supplied) to secure the cotter pins on the axles and a wrench (not supplied) to tighten the nuts on the caster bolts....here's a link to a tutorial Vid...... http://youtu.be/1BIQ7-RkQaQ . . hope this helps.

The casters should have been packed within this new item. This leads me to think they were not. You must contact Amazon therefore to put in a formal complaint which they will resolve IMO/most likely. However, if you picked up used, I guess you'll have to contact the manufacturer or check out stores like Lowes.

Casters are quite standardized. The casters on my chair have a threaded shank with a hexagonal head to accommodate a wrench. They screw into the chair leg, & mine are only finger tight. I suggest you unscrew the offending caster & take it to your local hardware, or a big box store Like Home Depot or Lowes. You should be able to find one of the same diameter & mounting system, though it may not be identical to the broken one, or your local contact should be able to tell you where you can get one.

The table comes with adjustable feet not casters. If you can find casters that have the same studs as the adjustable feet then it would be an easy swap.

If you bolt them( maybe ) with a nut on the other end . These have machine threads on them, you drill a hole in your 2x2 and put a nut on the other end . You will not find threaded inserts this large to put into the wood to screw them into . You need to drill your material all the way through and bolt them on. These casters are heavy duty . They work great. If you have 2x2 verticals just screw a 2x2 or a 2x4 horizontal on the bottom and drill through it and put your casters on it. I looked all over and you will not find T nuts or threaded inserts this large.

There are a few options. Manually solder them together, use "strip to strip connector" (also called "any angle turn connector), or "connector box".

I assume you mean wheels. Any caster that comes with a 3/8 inch bolt for screwing in should work. Remove one of the adjustable feet and take to a hardware store. Shouldn't be a problem to match the thread on a caster.

I had trouble installing the casters. The rear caster plates were not tapped and the metal (steel) was stronger than the screw (aluminum?), so the screw just got stripped. I picked up some 6-32 machine screws and nuts at the hardware store and that solved the problem. It's lame the didn't provide the right hardware.

You probably could - I think the biggest problem would be finding casters that would fit, I don't know where you would look for them.

yes, the casters just go into a hole in the bottom of the leg..just leave them off. But here is a tip, the are pretty well made casters, so you may want to keep them around for a future project, they could save you money down the road.

There are only 2 casters. You will have to buy 2 packages if you want 4. I have found that they won't stay on the 18x24 crate.

Yes, you have to attach the casters to the base. I'm not sure how well it would work without them, but it's possible to leave them off.

Sorry, I do not recall the size of the screws necessary and I no longer have the casters here to check, but what I would suggest you do is just take the casters with you to a nearby hardware store and find the proper fit that way. Ask an employee to help you find the proper fit if you need to. Shouldn't be a problem and I basically did the same thing using my own supply of screws. Trial and error is the easiest and best way to do it.

Not designed for casters; no casters were included. You might be able to rig something on it personally to make casters work. Joey
