I'm not sure about the bendy bridge - it might not be that stable. I seem to remember there are a couple of screws at the back of the base that attach the upright part (the bit the wheel is attached to), to the base, and that they come out quite easily. Basically then you have taken the base off. Hold the wheel upside down in the cage so the upright part bottom is at the top of the cage inside. Then put the base on the outside top of the cage and reattach it with the screws. Is that it Don? Assume it needed a bit more than that.

Or for a stand you could just get a piece of wood to stand the wheel on and tie the back to the bars. Ours was find stood on the cage base with just a bit of substrate around it - you could even 'fence off' that area with a bendy stick bridge and have the substrate higher on the other side of the fence - that's what I've done with our current wheel as it is almost as high as the cage.
