I work in a corner of my basement, so I keep several machines on mobile bases, moving them as needed. It's not always easy, as space is tight and the mobile bases I have are not very mobile. So I was eager to try Rockler's All-Terrain Mobile Base on my bandsaw and tablesaw. It features larger-than-usual 5-in.-dia. wheels, with urethane tires. Two swivel, and two lock. The base is easy to assemble and adjusts from 18 in. to 28 in. The Rockier base made it easy to zigzag around my workbench and other machinery. To test its off-road capabilities, I made a proving ground of extension cords, sawdust, chips, and wood scraps.
