🐹 Model overview A fully 3D‑printed hamster wheel designed for easy assembly, stable operation, and no need for additional hardware. All parts are included in the print, making it a practical and accessible project for any maker. 📏 Dimensions and construction Wheel diameter: 210 mm Running surface width: 100 mm All parts are 3D‑printed — no bearings or extra components required Two screws included: the basic screw and Screw Plus for fine‑tuning the clearance between the wheel and the base ⚙️ Function and behavior The wheel spins smoothly, but produces a small amount of noise during use (see video). Clearance can be adjusted easily using the Screw Plus to achieve optimal rotation.
