Wheels on your saws, lets see your setup. I'm wanting to put some on mine.

How about instead of asking folks to go to the trouble of posting what they have, you post photos of what the legs on your saw look like where they meet the floor. Be easier to make recommendations if we knew what you were dealing with. Are your saw legs just angle iron or do they have a base of some sort?

Standard angle iron like most saws, but would give me ideas whatever type someone has.

If your saw legs are just angle iron, you will have to do some welding to attach bases for casters. Do you weld?
How about cutting the existing legs off and putting the saw on a rolling cart? Some rolling carts can be found (check craigslist) for decent prices. Maybe you could even modify a shopping cart?

You may be looking for the real cobble job. Fasten some uprights (2x3's or so) to a 2x4 that is slightly wider than the spread of the angle iron legs. Then use hose clamps to clamp the uprights to the inside of your angle iron legs. Mount screw on wheels (flat plate with holes for screwing to the 2x4) to the sites under each of the four legs. When done you have two transverse struts supported by wheels and attached to your legs (no welding but not pretty). The key is everything has to be securely fastened.
