Ugh, was going to build a mobile mitre saw stand but then saw guides on making a flip top. Awesome, then I have saw table I can flip to also be a mobile workbench! but then cutting the ply would mean dragging out the table saw so I should probably put that on skates since it's gonna get a lot of use building cabinets in the future, so I do some nosing on that and everyone is building little platforms to put their tables on and why don't they just get lockable castors on threads and bolt them to the existing bolt-down holes on the table saw feet? Is there a reason for this? I need to know as the table end height would dictate the mitre saw table so I can set them the same height and use it as an outfeed......

Update: There is no reason why I cannot do this. Craftsmen sells a whole line of table saws with wheels attached in the manner I propose- complaints seem to be about poorly locking wheels. TO THE BUNNINGS!
