check them out before starting work. This tea wagon is black walnut & the plans recommended a set of Italian wheels & castors. The legs & rails are attached using blind dovetails. The shelf is plywood with 1/8" black walnut veneer. Came to the wheels. Turns out the castors were designed to bolt through a shelf....not for insertion into the bottom of the legs...rats. Had to go with different castors and of course could not get them for the same height as intended for the rear legs. Had to make additional turnings & dowel them into the bottom of the rear legs to bring the wagon level using the smaller wheeled castors. So check those plans drawn up by someone else before starting.
