We just moved some kitchen appliances t my sister's house. She bought
some of those sliding thingies that you place under the feet of items
like refrigerators and stoves that make them really easy to move. I
think they're called move-alls or some such thing. You can get them at
Home Depot. They glide over rough surfaces really well and make it
possible to move heavy stuff without marring your floors or getting hung
up on room threshholds and stuff.

Subject: Trying not to scrape the floors... advice?
Hi everyone. We currently have some (rather heavy) pedestal-base exhibit
cases in a room with a slate floor. In order to install exhibits, the
cases need to be moved a bit. The floor has been newly refinished and
there is now concern that we are going to scrape the floor during
installation. Does anyone know of something that we can place on the
bottom of the cases to prevent scraping? The slate on the floor has some
natural ridging that means the floor isn't perfectly flat.
Any thoughts are welcomed.
Thanks!
Tracy Sullivan
