Plastic, 20 cm. Couldn't find anything bigger at that time. And yes, it's too bad that around here petshop aren't really into rodents/birds and so on. Dogs and cats are the stars. When I see people buying those really small cages for any animals is so sad...I had a look on those two sites you linked and all the cages are very small It is difficult when there's no real choice. You could try adding deeper bedding - which will also mean less clean outs, and see if he stops chewing the bars. But sometimes it becomes a habit. The other thing that can make them bar chew as well, is if the wheel is too small, and it's uncomfortable for them then so they don't use it and get a lot of pent up energy. Which wheel does he have?
I had found exactly these on a local pet shop. Was kind of surprised to find them. He chew a bit, but he was sleepy and didn't want to insist, we'll in the next days how interested he is.These are the toothbrush chews

Not sure, never had the idea. Not sure how would look or functionCould you make a bin cage? That would probably mean cutting the ends off two bins and then glueing them together to make a larger one.
That is really good news that he has stopped bar chewing. If you avoid cleaning him out too often then hopefully that will continue. Regular big clean outs can cause the stress that leads to bar chewing as well.
He still needs at least 6” depth of substrate - if nothing else then to ensure you don’t need to clean him out too often. And can just spot clean mainly.
Meanwhile hopefully you can give him plenty of out of cage time in a playpen eg
I know it is very difficult when there just isn’t something available.
