Wifey bought a clothes airer from Bunnings - it was this model:
https://www.bunnings.com.au/practa-white-3-tier-clothes-airer_p0480166
The original price was $32 but it was on special for $2 because one of the castor wheels is missing. So wifey requested that I "fix" it.
Initially I tried to print a replacement mount to retrofit an existing 40mm castor wheel I had lying around, but this prove to be quite difficult and beyond my skills set. So after some negotiation, wifey accepted that all the castor wheels be replaced with non-movable leg supports instead.
So here are the retroffitted mounts to replace the existing castor wheels.
The clothes airer due to the way it is folded together, will require the mounts of different heights. I dont know the exact differential heights they ought to be, so I just eyeball the height difference and do some trial and error.
After the print, I use a drill to adjust the overall size of the hole to accomodate the bolt that I needed to use. It is essentially just a set of bolt and nut per leg.
Seems to work fine in the end. so wifey is happy.
Hope this helps someone in the same boat.
