This is my novice mind wondering, but I wonder how difficult it would be to make one with bigger wheels, so it can be used to move the TC around, even if it is on gravel or rougher terrain that the smaller casters might not function well on. That would be quite useful for outside storage lots.
I tried, and it doesn't work as well as you'd hope it would.
Last fall I built a camper dolly using 10" pneumatic caster wheels in the hopes of being able to roll my camper around my crushed stone floor barn.
The crushed stone has been packed down for a long time and has plenty of dirt mixed in so it is very smooth and solid.
I used ten casters, each with a capacity of 300lbs, spaced evenly along the length of the camper, to move a 1600lb camper.
When I first dropped the camper on the dolly, the wheels under the front of the camper just about popped from the weight. I had to move extra wheels under the front of the camper.
Even with the tires pumped up hard, it does not roll well on my barn floor. I can not imagine trying to roll it on grass.
