I would like to build sort of a feed table for my table saw, and would
like to have the ball bearing rollers onit to help move it easier side
to side and of course forward. Where would you recommend to get these
rollers. Seems like rockler is about the only place that seems to have
them. I am thinking the 5/8" one are good enough.



Look for roller blade or scooter repair kits. I've seen these for
dirt cheap at local closeout stores.


Are you talking about small ones, or the ones that are on those material
handling conveyors? The ones about 2" in diameter and 12" long?

I searched and searched, and found only ones that were priced comparably
with 18k gold. Then my neighbor, a junk collector, brought me a milk crate
with about fifty in there. I only need ten.
