ive only used 1/4 inch because thats what is easily available, I would like to try 1/8 because you could stack more, I dont know if there is a big difference between them, more of a matter of preference
I sometimes just use a bunch of brad nails in the waste pieces, this usually holds it together pretty tight, just put at least two or three in the final cut so it doesnt pivot
hey sam if I read DWs reply right he said just hold the bolt not to actually tighten the bolt but the screw, and if the screw keeps turning the hold the bolt with the wrench and continue to tighten the screw
just a suggestion for any wheels you might end up buying I would only put them on the back legs but not on the bottom but on the back just enough so they touch the ground. this way whenever you need to move it you just tilt it back on those wheels and wheel it around. that way its solid on the ground instead of sitting on wheels. I dont know if you could do this on the dewalt stand but it was just an idea.
