This page provides a few replacement parts for the Ultimate Foraging Wheel found at https://www.printables.com/model/1158725-ultimate-foraging-wheel-for-rats 


I wanted the wheel to be quicker and easier to refill, so I replaced the star knob with a compound knob that requires fewer turns.
 

See video for demo. 


The bottom ring of the compound knob secures the cover in one rotation and the top knob attaches the feeder to the cage in two rotations. It requires the M5 hex bolt to be 30mm instead of 25mm for a bit of extra reach. There are four replacement parts total ( 3 printable )

Double Case

Non printable 
M5 hex bollt, 30mm 


Print Settings
All parts were printed in PLA on an A1 mini with a .4mm nozzle and a .16mm layer height. All parts were printed with bed supports.

Use Note
When attaching the cover, tighten the bottom knob firmly. If not firm, there may be some binding during removal when the top knob is loosened.


Cheers!
