This may have come up before, but anyone out there have pictures of a base they have made ( or had made ) for their gas pump. I'd like to build a base that I can roll around easily, but is stable enough to keep the pump from tipping over.
Looking forward to seeing the pictures. Thanks

I don't like my pumps on castor's. Easiest way to do it; is to use four swivel castors with rubber wheels with a minimum 3/8 stud for mounting. Install the castors in the factory mounting holes utilized to secure the pump to the concrete island.

Done the same as Dave on a friends tall 39 works just fine.

Harbor Frieght and Northern Tool make a small pallet with wheels I've seen some guys using them. They are cheaper than buying four good castors.

I've always wanted to install pop down wheels that would work on a button and would stay tucked away, unseen, inside the base, when not in use.

Tok.39 are unseen and sits about 3/4 in. off floor.- I've always wanted a toothbrush that load its on tooth paste but I can't figure it out.
