I made this because my 3D printer lives on an IKEA BEKVÄM kitchen trolley and the whole thing was a little bit more wobbly than I would have liked.

The wheels were able to move slightly, and my floor isn't perfectly even. So I made a simple set consisting of wheel locks for the caster side and leveling feet for the two fixed legs.

The wheel locks are one-piece parts that slide over the casters and stop them from rolling. You can optionally add some rubber pads to the bottom to stop them from sliding. For the fixed legs, there are covers in different heights to compensate for an uneven floor.

The included heights run from 1 mm to 5 mm in 0.5 mm steps. There is also a small printable gauge that you can slide under the leg to figure out roughly which size you need.

Parts

  • Caster / wheel locks

  • Feet for the legs from 1 to 5mm in 0.5mm increments

  • A small gauge for measuring the required height

How to use

  1. Print two wheel locks and slide one over each caster.
    They should sit around the wheels and prevent them from rolling. Rubber pads can be added underneath if the locks tend to slide on your floor.

  2. Check whether the trolley still rocks or wobbles.
    If it sits firmly, you’re done. If one of the fixed legs is slightly off the floor, use the gauge.

  3. Print the gauge and slide it underneath the raised leg, starting at the thinnest end.
    Push it in until the trolley sits stable, then note the marked height at the edge of the leg.

  4. Choose the feet to print.
    You can either:

    • print one foot matching the measured height, for the shorter leg only, or

    • fit feet to both fixed legs.

  5. When fitting both legs, use the 1 mm foot as the baseline and add the measured difference to the other side.
    For example, if the gauge shows a 2 mm difference, print:

    • one 1 mm foot

    • one 3 mm foot

  6. Fit the feet onto the two fixed legs and check the trolley again.
    If there is still a small amount of movement, try the next 0.5 mm size up or down.

Printing

I printed mine in PETG but PLA should be just fine.

I would recommend at least 3 walls.
No supports required.
