New Article - How to Measure a Caster Stem

We've heard from our customers that one of their biggest frustrations is ordering the wrong caster stem. You know how it goes, you get the box from the delivery driver, open it up, they look right.  Then you take off the old ones and they don't fit. You know how this story ends.

So to help, we've created a new guide to help get the right measurements, the first time. Using two common tools, an adjustable wrench and a ruler, you will be able to get the right dimensions of a grip ring or threaded stem (by far the most common types).

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to let us know.

A Polish Lunch and Polka

Tom Glynn Accordionist Extrordinaire! We’d like to extend a special thanks to two of our employees, Ed Glynn and Mike Hudak. Our spirits needed lifting, and they rose to the occasion.  They put together an unofficial Poland Day lunch.  We weren’t quite sure why they chose Poland, but it all became clear this afternoon.  Ed’s father, Tom Glynn, is a proficient player of the Accordion, he studied under Ed Stefani!  An excellent lunch, and a great time, indeed.

Thanks again!
