Yamaha U1's and double wheel castors

[John Ross]

Hi David,
I had to shim the hole to make the sockets for the castors tight, I
can't remember if I had to router a bit for clearance for assembly to
rotate.
That was the first time.
When I do it now, I use casters that are on a plate. It made it
slightly higher, but no one complained.
