Looking for rollers on chair
Haven't been on for quite some time but awhile ago someone had posted a link where someone was making rollers for chairs that had tennis balls on top of the roller to keep the chair leg in & to make the chair movable. I think it was some place that was doing this for a fundraiser. Does anyone remember this post???

Didn't see that thread but is this what you had in mind? I guess you may be able to put the balls over small castors to stop chairs rolling around too.

Was this the thread? It's not a very long thread, but it's the only one I've found.

I am curious as to where you find the rollers.
|
the 6 inch tri dolly is what you are looking for. They run about $7-8 dollars, if you don't mind the steel colored ones, Harbor freight has them for $4.99. The other ones are black, you will see when you google them.

I don't understand the purpose of these! Can someone explain? Thanks in advance.
|
They are to make any chair to be able to roll and the balls are to keep the chair legs from sliding around on the rollers.

My hubby and I did this too. A word of caution to anyone wanting to try this . . . make sure you get heavy duty tri-casters. I thought the ones we got off Amazon would do the trick, but they bent. :(

Thanks everyone for your help! I think I'll see if my uncle can make these for me.
