i love the absurdly good production quality for a video about caster wheels. thank you for being the only video on the internet that actually explains how they work:D

I like the breakdown, I love to see the intricacies and I’m researching how to replace the rollers on my 150 pound old wrought iron birdcage and after watching your video, I’m contacting Darnell Rose, I bet I’ll find what I need. Great video

I'm thinking about casters now. Why did I watch this and was it relevant information for me? I have no idea but the video was cool as heck. I never thought I would geek out on casters. Storing this in the memory bank of my mind for future reference. Just in case. Excellent animations by the way.

Nice Job, Chris! Your voice commentary was well timed to match the computer animation of the casters - I was amazed at the number of piece-parts that went into that well-built caster. Also of value was the on-screen listing of some of the forces and torques observed inside the unit.

I must say, A++++++ presentation of the topic here! And that castor system seems to be really well designed too. It all makes one appreciate good design versus the cheapest buy price. Love your work.

Very interesting and educational video answering lots of questions. appreciate the explanation of the physics of casters--science in daily life..

I wish I had his talent! Excellent presentation! Wish I would have seen this years ago. Six years ago I added two hidden rooms to my office behind bookshelves on casters. The casters have had problems that you address. It's easy to take them for granted when they are so important.

Wow! You people rock!!! Thanks a bunch for the video.

The term you are looking for is "offset", and "squirrely" describes the unstable turning movement of the front bike wheel when there's not enough rake or offset.

The animations are really good. They fit really well with Chris his explanation. I've followed the progress on this over at ThoseAVGeeks and on the supersecret captains channel (I think?) and it was fun seeing the whole video develop. I'm sure Darnell Rose will appreciate this video as well.

Can't wait for more episodes!

The automatic closed captioning for this video is amazingly accurate. Chris, you must have a voice that Google used to train its speech to text system. Very impressive.

currently, i'm required to research about caster wheels for work. i found this video very informative, thank you chris for explaining it in layman's term!

Man the graphics keep getting better and better! You better watch out, next thing you know, gibroni gets an offer for a 6 figure salary at some fancy studio!

You guys Rock!

I will like to see a video on how you make videos! It would tell us so much about how you do things behind the scenes

Really good and informative to me :-)

wish i was a part of this group and get to do cool experiments

Awesome CAD! Did you guys do it yourself?

Which software did you use analysing this product? its pretty cool.

The meter behind your head looks like the one I donated to you. If your interested in the original batteries ( dead ) I can bring them sometime. The D-Cell ( Solder-On connections ) has "10 cents" Printed on it :)

Hey, Any chance you guys still have this drawing handy? Solidworks hopefully, AutoCAD works as well.

How many casters do I need to lift my house and move it around where ever I want?

cool

Thanks I just listened to a car engineering guy talk about suspension caster... So I was very confused by thenthumbnail.. I got confused that the meaning (the wheel) as I understood it,/until twenty minutes ago WAS the caster-wheel. I mean I knew caster wheels were good... But theyre really interesting... yet I still don't know what caster is in suspension.

It creeps me out that their 'autopsy' table.. is a real autopsy table lol Also, the animation is done well!

So basically, if i have a caster rated for arguments sake at 500kg. And i secure the fork part of the caster in a table vice, leaving the top four hold plate exposed. And i have a rectangular 30inch length x 2inches wider plate than the castor plate, that's 3/4/5mm thick. And i bolt my one end of my plate to the castor and have anywhere up to 500kgs on the other end that's 30inches from the castor. The castor and bearings can take that and turn no problem what so ever?

Because: nitpick, are you sure the bells on the sides of the wheels are not "THREADguards", because that makes more sense.... and I looked it up in their brochure.

thank-you! i almost bought the cheap ones

So..... Do castors all spin the same in terms of speed? Like will one castor spin more freely than another or not? Not talking about the wheel either, im talking about the top part you attatch to what ever it is you're trying to give mobility... Anyone? 😵

Hamilton makes a 50 ton caster, The Colossus.

That's ok, your name makes me giggle.

"Spellcaster" At the end of the video, I got it.

Where is the rest?

Yorick needs radio controlled eyes.

I found very clear plans for something like that I found on Stodoys website.
