Excellant tool and help for a shop/shed but would not a set of casters (locking casters if you insist) work just as well on a Lathe Base. I have mine on casters and find it especially useful to move about in my tiny dust bowl (that I call a shop) I know there are those who feel you have to engourge your lathe with tons of weight and contraptions to stabilize but I have never had a problem with 99% of my turnings (Only if I attempt some off the wall lopsided chunk )
Ingenious design and great deal of thought went into your scooter. It does remind me of the Motorcycle jack my S-I-L has in his garage... Of course yours is made for the task at hand but they could be brothers or in the same family

Had a request for pictures as they seem to have been wiped out some time in the last 11 years or so!! Lucky I'm a hoarder and still have them so here you go gjkathome. It's a lot dirtier now and has had plenty of use over the years for more than just moving the lathe and the jack has lost a lot of oil but it still works as good as day one.
