Bore corresponding holes in the floor! Then when SWMBO wants you to
rearrange it, you can tell her it has to stay where it is.
Actually, that's not a half bad idea. The four pieces of wood and flush cut
saw suggestion is plausible, but what if you instead made four "coasters"
for the feet? If your legs are square across the bottom already, you could
even do this upside down to avoid the weight problem. If you have rounded
bottoms, or some narrow profile that would be too tippy, you'll have to do
it with the piece right side up on the floor. Either way, Forstner a hole
of suitable depth in four pieces of scrap big enough to serve as a guide
for the four or six flush cut saws you will go through on this miserable
project. Saw for 36 to 94 hours, and viola.
(And yes, I said "viola" not "voilą.")
