    Can anyone recommend some castors or similar that won't raid e the case too much (I have a clearance issue).

    The case (GW802) had four plastic feet and ideally something would use the same single bolt attachment.

    EDIT:
    Alternatively would the (RS 687-635 ) ball transfer units be liable to mark a wooden floor?

    what some folks have done is to use whatever castors you have availible but mount them up in the case a bit instead of to the bottom. You cut out a circle where the castor sits and give it room to swivel if they need to. I've seen some done this way and it looks cool but I don't have any examples off hand to share.

    [edit] found something on it... check out this link (you need to cut and paste it into your browser URL field) http://www.geocities.com/astrumproelaitor/Offset.jpg
