After looking at that thing in the URL, yours is a point well worth making! I
once had to move a floor DP with an hand truck, and the darn thing got away
from me on a turn. I managed to grab the top and stay upright, but it took
both hands, so picture me standing there, unable to move, and trying to figure
out what to do with this thing. (Obvious answer: slowly lower to the floor and
go get a cup of coffee instead.)

The problem with bolting on a stable frame is that you typically want to be
able to put the DP up against a wall, and there's no good way to stabilize it
for moving unless you extend the frame behind it a ways.

Just picked up the DP400 from Lowes for $220. But I would really like to
have a mobile base for it seeing that it is good size for my garage. There
was one idea I found online here

Any ideas?

Yes, Don't use the one in the url above if you value your health.
