Caster on Tripod?

[mfridman]

Has anyone thought of putting a locking caster on the front leg of a 3-leg kettle?  Something like this: https://www.harborfreight.com/3-inch-x-3-4-quarter-inch-stem-swivel-caster-with-brake-90992.html

I'm thinking about it... seems like an "R2D2" type motion might be neat.

A video dolly is what I've alway envisioned.

I put a couple spare Weber wheels on mine. Its gets around pretty good without a swiveler on it.



Only draw back is when the wind blows I have to go to my neighbors place to get my dinner and my grill back...try explaining that to your hungry neighbors that've been smelling what your cooking for hours.

An old beer can keeps it home.

Now that I've seen that, I can't envision it
any other way.  I love it.

It's easy to employ a standard stem caster wheel in front. Get a 1" diameter shower curtain rod. Smash one end with a hammer on the garage floor, to create your flat mounting spot. Hold the rod while you do this at the rough angle needed for the kettle leg. Drill your hole for the stem and secure the wheel. Hold it up to the kettle, start cutting off rod length etc.
