This is a general design for rolling things like bicycles or strollers. 

I modified a gyroscope to lock together and designed compliant springs to dampen bumps while it holds a cup from a coffee shop. 

Please see the image for the compliant part orientation, just print 2 of them!

To lock the gyroscope together cut 2 pieces of 5mm length of 1.75mm diameter filament and stick into the ends of the gyroscope axes.

Requires 3 flathead M4 x 30mm and 3 M4 nuts.
