Thanks for posting a source for casters. I have a

me with one missing (but I think there is some bent metal on one or

casters and be ready to replace them all.

This is related to why my spare chassis has issues. I used to sit
other hardware on top of it. The one my PDP-11/73 lives in hasn't
had much more than a VT420 sitting on it in the last 10+ years (and
for 8+ of them it hasn't even had that on top).
