Casters on MES analog smoker?

[jc03]

I just got a 30" MES analog smoker for Christmas. It's the one that has 4 legs. Has anyone installed casters on one of these? I love the smoker but I have been moving it around quite a bit. I was thinking about drilling one hole in the bottom of each leg, adding a reinforcement plate and attaching the casters through the hole. Any thoughts?

Check out this thread there is one or two examples of casters on MES.

As long as you can get screws to fit into the holes and find small enough casters I would think it should work. I don't have a MES so I have never looked at the bottom of one but it it has any type of feet on it I would think they would screw on and you should be able to add casters.

Hey Jc03, I was in the same boat with my Master Forge a while ago.  I took a little different route than just casters...

Here's a post I did a while back.  Might give you an idea for something just a tad different.  Hope it helps.

Thanks, looks like a great idea!

I made a dolly exactly like this one, and it would work just the same for the analog electric one.
