    Caster design —Dean Hystad
   Has anyone seen a good writeup on the mechanics of caster design? I am looking for a concise description of how the horn offset (distance between the wheel axle and the caster pivot) affects stability and the "caster steer" phenomenon. (22 years ago, 4-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics)

   (...) Check out Mario Ferrari's book, pages 134 and 143. He shows the good and bad caster designs. (22 years ago, 6-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics)
