Making a C14 movable - further information
Hello Menno,
I thought I would apologise. I went out and measured it and it is not quite as straightforward as it would appear. (Like so many things, it seemed like a good idea at the time.) The main problem is that the curved sides of the dolly prevent a conventional shaped chock from being inserted. D'OH!
Any chock as I am suggesting would now have to be a particular size.
You can slide a chock in from the direction of any of the three wheels in the dolly, providing it is not more than 30mm high and 30mm wide. The height directly under the leg is ~20mm. - So it is still eminently do-able. However you would have to have enough purchase on the chock to force it in, and then remove it later.
If you can find or fashion such a chock, I would suggest somehow attaching a string to the end of it to help pull it out.
So it probably involves a bit of work with a Stanley knife if you want to go this way. As I said, I haven't tried it, but the concept is simple and you have the rounded base of the dolly sitting 20mm over your flat floor, begging for something to steady it.
