Here's another home made hamster bucket wheel. This one is silent by cleverly screwing a fidget spinner to the back (child's toy). It also looks to be a safe construction but uses pvc pipe for the stand instead of a wood stand. This one does seem to need a drill as a definite. With silent wheels, the way they achieve it is by using a mechanism which contains ball bearings. So using something like a fidget spinner works very well. The centre already contains the ball bearings. I've also seen similar ones where people use the centre of an old computer hard drive (which also spins).'
I really like the idea of this! But think I prefer a simple wood stand.
