You're welcome, mate! Glad it's a help to you.
As far as tips go, don't skimp out on the size of your bolts. Get them nice and beefy, i'd say minimum m12. Beech is dense and really likes to be tightened well. I think an m10 or m8 just wouldn't have supported the tightness.
If i were to do anything different it'd be to have the top supporting beam of the wheel assembly (with the friction plate) be top-loading instead of side-loading. While it's more than strong enough as is, i'd be more at ease knowing the wood has no physical way of moving anywhere under extreme loads. But at that point i think the wheels might give out before the actual wood beams.
