In Lunas alaska We have the wheel (29cm size) in the same place but as close to the door as possible if that makes sense? and the back corner on the same side is where her sandpit is- there's no substrate underneath it (She didnt like a box, though you can probably put a box in the corner) so she can't kick it out.

We also have a litter box underneath her shelf in the corner furthest away from the door- which is pretty much the only area under the shelf where her nest isn't. At first she peed right next to the entrance of her nest, but she's managing the box now (Although she doesn't seem to want to nest in a hut or anything- a nest box might make fitting a litter box in awkward). It's strange that your ham would pee on/near his food? Poos makes sense, but peeing on it is a bad habit and I don't know how you would stop that..
