Wodent Wheels have to free stand as the stand is an integral part of the wheel. I actually have a Gabber Rex set up and ready (as we are expecting new arrivals after Lymm on Sunday ) and have tried the WW Junioir in various places in the cage. It sits very nicely with the stand in the alcove - the wheel protrudes a bit further forward than a wheel actually attached onto the groove would - and the back of the stand can be clothes pegged to one of the slits in the Rex shelf to prevent it moving about.

I'm not sure where the Senior would go, Jill - as I understand it they are 11 and a half inches across plus half inch for the stand on the height measurement as opposed to 8 and half inches across plus half inch for the stand on the Junior. All of our hammies run comfortably (ie with flat backs) on the Juniors even Mocha who is quite a bit larger than the other two. Unfortunately I don't have a Senior to show you at the show but you'll get a good idea of how much space will be needed when you see the Junior.

I missed all this before Lymm...yikes! Well now Holly you saw Hammy there so do you think that the Junior would be ok for him?

Well I'm far from an expert but I wouldn't have said Hammy is any bigger than Mocha and, having watched Mocha running on his wodent wheel a lot (it's like a new hobby for me - I'm addicted to the noise it makes ) and seeing his back is nice and straight and he looks really comfy, I'd have said yes. At least you would know it fits into the Rex as well.

I'm doing the order in two weeks when I've been paid so, if you and Basia definitely want one, just let me know before then and I'll send you a link to the colours available

I'm going to order a couple of extras and, if no one wants them, I'll see how they do on ebay!

Are you still taking orders for these Holly? I was going to order on Zooplus, but this might work out cheaper, and I can choose better colours.

I am interested in two Juniors, and also a Wobust (if you can also order the Wobust wheels). Would I be able to choose running strip colours and also the colour of the faces?

How would you be taking payment for these, paypal, cheque?
Would they be arriving to yourself from the states and then are you sending them to individuals? I assume this would then incur additional postage and packing on my part?

If you need to email me, [email protected]

Hi Justine,

Yes I'm still doing orders - I can't really send mine in until I've been paid (2 weeks today) so I'm happy to take orders up a few days before that time. I will then get a quote including shipping from the US and work out everyone's share. I will then need to take payment for large orders like yours as I probably can't pay for a large order up front myself. You can pay by cheque or Paypal (I'm Paypal verified) whatever you prefer. There will obviously be UK postage to pay also - I won't know the exact cost for this until this first order comes but I won't need to charge any packing fees at all as I recycle packaging from work. ..the wheels are very light so postage within the UK should be minimal. They arrived in under 7 working days and I will post them out as quickly as I can - it will definitely be within 48 hours of when I receive them, same day even if I'm not at work.

You can choose running strip colours, sticker colours and also whether you want black or white front and back panels (or one of each if you like!). Look at the link earlier in this thread and you can see most of the colours in action and, if you are still interested let me know and I'll send you a link to the colour order page. I'm having some email problems at the moment so it's easier if you PM me on here.

HTH - they are fab wheels and all our hams have them.
