Got bored last weekend..
Made some custom vette-rollers! 
each caster can support 1000 pds! So thats like 5k on each one.. granted I doubt the wood would handle that!

it can go pretty fast! (over your toes!)
Your probably right. I highly doubt they each can handle 1K rolling! Plus all the casters I was looking at are ALL made in China!!!
but it is nice to be able to push the car a couple feet here and there!!!

Jacks man! it wasn't a 'thang! haha.
Just have to jack it up a little, and slide em out!
I just been toying around with the idea in my head for a while, and didn't want to drop the extra $$$ on the ones that hold from the tires. This way if I wanted to not drive the car for a couple months, I didn't have to worry about flat spots. Plus it's actually pretty solid, doesn't feel like it's going anywhere.
and I didn't color match them, as I was going for the 'natural' wood color

Why would you not want to drive the car for a few months????? 
It's not like you have to put it to sleep for the winter. I can't stand not driving mine for a couple days, let alone a couple months. 
Unless.....you have another vette to jump into....
