That looks very good. Any chance of a more detailed breakdown of construction? For example, what are the blocks that the rollers are mounted in? Daft enough as I am, to model in three gauges (21, 32 and 36.76mm), looks like there is potential to create a multi gauge rolling road using your method.

Construction wise I simply removed two of the longer steel rods from the pot stand then used the small plastic feet to fix them to the plywood.

I’m I used epoxy as it allowed me some time to adjust the fit of the rollers perfectly. I reckon it will hold as I don’t expect it to be subject to much force.

I then drilled and tapped a small hole in the end of each rod to take a small set screw for attaching either wire or crocodile clips.
