I'm sure if you asked nicely someone wouldn't mind taking one apart for you to get at the spindle

There are other options but this is one: https://cocodrilabs.wordpress.com/20...hamster-wheel/
I'm definitely gonna try this one! The only wheel i could find here in our country that's big enough for my Syrian is a metal one. And it is sooo noisy! Thank you for sharing this.

Though I'm trying to think now how to make a stand for this wheel since my hamster is in a bin cage. Hm, any ideas?
