The only thing you need to buy are a few parts that will act as wheels. If necessary, the user also provides files for 3D printing of wheels.

You’ve made updates to your files over time, so you can use the adjustments at any time. To continue working on future updates and adjustments, as well as improvements to the printing and assembly documentation, Maker World users can make “boosts”, which are direct donations to the user..

Other support and 3D curiosities for Mac mini
The incredible thing about this discovery is that This isn’t the only idea that can be implemented on the Mac mini.. Maker World has several projects to support the Mac mini in various ways. One is a docking station of sorts that can have an SSD inside, which is ideal for users who want to connect an external drive but don’t want it to be visible on the desk or surface they place the Mac mini on. .
One of the designs addresses the controversy surrounding the Mac mini’s power button. It’s a kind of lever where it fits underneath the Mac mini and by pressing one end it can perform the action of pressing a button. Since this is the idea of a user who does not have a physical Mac mini, he is not able to test its operation, but is asking for help to improve his accessory.
Other support is more naturalone is a wall mount bracket and the other is more sensible as it allows access to all ports and also solves the power button issue. It is ideal to place under a table as it has holes for screw mounting.
