How to add wheels to TV stand?

Hello Workshoppers!

 

I just bought the stand for my TV, and had this vision of adding wheels to the bottom of it.

As there is no hole to screw in wheels, I was thinking about getting something like this:

Does anyone have any advice for this? 

The TV Stand has 4 legs, all of which are ~20mm in diameter. I was looking for something the stand can slide into, be tightened, if that makes sense!

 

let me know if you have any ideas :~)

Re: How to add wheels to TV stand

Hello @httpmrchris 

 

The legs of the Samsung Serif TV are built for static display only, they are not built for movement. Adding wheels to the legs is dangerous as it might unbalance the TV as the legs were never designed to hold the TV when in motion. It's a great idea, one that Samsung should have taken into consideration when they were designing the TV stand. Perhaps they did but minimalism won out. 

 

I can only suggest getting a TV cabinet such as the White TV Entertainment Cabinet Unit and adding wheels to it. You then put the TV on top without its legs, it's low center of gravity and wide stance make it ideal as a TV stand on wheels.

 

Let me call on our experienced members @Dave-1 and @Nailbag for their recommendations.

 

If you need further assistance, please let me know.
