We have an old-style Rocking Chair in my daughter’s room (solid wood) that I use to rock her in when I put her to bed. Every time I rock in it, it slowly slides until it bumps into the wall. I’ve tried putting a rug under it to keep it from moving across the carpet, but I’m not sure what else to do. I still want to be able to rock in it, but I’m sick of rocking and then hearing/feeling it hit the wall. Any suggestions?

I would like to pick your brains about some chairs I have in my classroom at the high school where I work. The chairs are rolling office chairs and the floor is linoleum.

The wheels can be removed, but, without the wheels, the chair is not usable to sit on because the pole in the center of the chair base comes down farther than where the wheels are attached.

There is no money in the budget for new chairs (there are 33 of them), rugs or cushions under the chairs, or to carpet the room.

The wheels are made of plastic. There is a small metal axle between the two sides of a wheel leaving space between them. The top half (but not the sides) of the wheel unit is covered by a plastic outer shell.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you!

We recently installed wood floors and I don’t want the chairs to scratch. I have seen people do this but never thought to ask since we didn’t have it. What would be the best way to do this so the pieces don’t fall off, but yet not damage my chairs?
