(2) 12" square pieces of commercial vinyl floor tile well slathered in-between with axle grease. They work every bit as well as expensive roller bearing style lazy susans.
I bet they also don't shoot ball bearings all over the shop if you do something silly like pick one up before the top plate is locked or something.

I have Intercomps, and the only thing I don't like about them is the cables are like trying to get Christmas tree lights back in the box.
