Description

This is a huge version of a hamster wheel, which I designed for the squirrels in my garden. It has about 16 inch diameter, three spokes (to allow easy access inside). It also uses 4 standard inlineskate ball bearings (608) to make sure everything rolls properly.

What you additionally need:

  • three screw bars M8 (I bought a 1m long one which I cut to size)
    • 1x 250mm
    • 2x 235mm
  • 8x M8 nuts
  • ca. 24x short screws M3 x 8
  • ca. 24x special nuts M3 - i Used these: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B08T9YS1HX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  • 4 common ball bearings 608 (8mm x 22mm x 7mm) like these: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07HGXXX37/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  • ca. 160 long bambus sticks of ca. 2.6mm thickness - I used something like these: https://www.amazon.de/Metaltex-570130-Schaschlikspie%C3%9Fe-100-st%C3%BCck/dp/B009V0P85C/ref=sr_1_3?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&crid=H484XNCGV4FK&dchild=1&keywords=schaschlikspie%C3%9Fe&qid=1620900882&sprefix=schaschlik%2Coffice-products%2C201&sr=8-3
  • about 2.5m of wood for building the wheel support
  • wood screws
  • Glue that works with PLA: UHU Allplast - I used this: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B000KTBLOA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
