Artur trestle legs help
Can someone please tell me if I can attach castors to the Artur trestle legs? I am planning to have a table for cutting in my sewing room and will need to move the table somethimes. Thank-you in advance for any feedback.

Re: Artur trestle legs help
Welcome to IKEAFANS, cotton.

I would advise against using casters on the Artur legs - they aren't thick enough to handle either stem- or plate casters. Also, because of the angle of the legs, I'd be concerned about having to much lateral stress art the bottom of those legs.

Re: Artur trestle legs help
Thanks for your answer Chuck. I didn't know that. I'd like to know if I can use castors with the T legs for a Glasholm table top and frame?
