In Response To: Shop: Moveable forms (Thomas Badow)

: Is it possible and workable to place the form on lockable casters so
: it can be moved when necessary?

My external strongback is on casters and is moved around constantly. I've not had any problem with the 2"x2"x.125" square steel tube twisting, bending, etc. The hull for the second boat built on this strongback is sanded, ready for glass, and looks straight to me. ;)
