Thank you! lol I thought it was funny too. I made a huge mess trying to come up with what turned out to be a very simple solution. I worked on it for 2 days until I figured it out. I may be a little slow at these things but I'm very determined :)
That was genius! Great fix! I've heard of many 10 inch silent spinner breaking, I hope the company fixes the design flaw, and they switch to a bigger screw.
I also figured the stand was too small as well, it's too bad the company skimped out and didn't get bigger heavy duty stands. However I'm glad to see the company making more appropriate sized wheels for Syrians hamsters @@HammyTime
@@hamtron5074 Me too! We can thank Alex and Jason from the Pipsqueakery for meeting with them and explaining appropriate products for hamsters. Hopefully they will pay more attention.
Ha ha! That “really big mess” kind of resembles my apartment floor approximately 50% of the time, as I’m always having “brilliant” art or diy ideas that require getting out a million supplies, and then only putting away a quarter of them before the next idea pops into my brain!
This hack worked out but the wire stand is still too thin so it can bounce and wobble a bit when my hamster runs too fast. The new brand, Niteangle makes really nice wheel so I would recommend those
It's nice that you are capable of fixing these.😊 If you ever get a chance to make a video of your doing a cage clean, I'd be very interested. Especially with the sand! Some of your cages are just beautiful and big, cleaning I'm sure is laborious. Yet interesting.
@@evac.705 The sand is the most laborious. I have a video on cleaning sand. The rest of the cage is mostly spot cleaned. Most hamsters will have corner they like to pee so it makes it easier to maintain :)
This is a lifesaver. I read that the 10'' tends to sag, but it was either this or the absolutely gigantic 12" so I took my chances. It was fine at first, but now its rubbing paint off the stand where the friction is (which I dont want my hamster injesting or breathing too much) as well as the sound is awful. I'm pretty tolerant to the sound of wheels, and even squeaking wouldnt be so bad. But it sounds like someone playing drums when the back of the wheel hits that stand and I can tell the way it tilts makes it harder for my little guy to balance on it. For now I just glued a piece of fabric around it to make the friction quieter, but I'll definitely try this trick when I'm home this evening since it seems like a better and more permanent fix to the sagging problem as a whole
I cannot thank you enough! I have been looking everywhere on how to open the yellow bit!! I knew it could open, it just wouldn't! Thank you thank you thank you!! Mine also has the same issue of scrapping the stand, ill try this out for sure! 💖
wow, this is an amazing video and you are so smart and crafty. i like the silent spinner for my hamster but i hate how flimsy and prone to breaking it is. thanks so much for sharing! you were so detailed in the materials and the process, even an idiot like me can figure it out. i super appreciate it!
Thank you. I'm so happy to hear that you could understand. Sometimes I have a hard time explaining things to people. They usually give me funny looks :)
Just a tip to someone who doesn't have all the tools needed for this hack, I find that inserting a thick piece of cardboard between the yellow part and the stand does the trick. Mine is all silent now and no more scraping. I observed my syrian hamster run all night and it stands well. Even my partner who is a very light sleeper didn't wake up from any noise. Finally no more arguing over sleepless nights
Do you mean a cardboard washer? Is it round with a hole to fit over the bolt? Does it hold up for a Syrian hamster? It’s too late for me to try it LOL, but it sounds like a good hack :)
@@HammyTime I just cut up pieces of 1x1" inch cardboard and glued it all together until it is about close to 1/2" thick. Then I insert it at the back under the yellow part. It prevents the wheel from falling down and grinding the stand
Check my channel page for my Comfort Wheel Hack video. It's similar but I attached the spinner to the back of the wheel and used the block of wood to hold the screw and metal stand :)
I'm not sure how to hack this wheel without the spinner and still be able to use the original stand and parts. I don't know how well it would turn if you just used a bolt. It might wobble too much.
Yes, however it really depends on the bearing you use. Some fidget spinners aren't as silent as I would like but you can swap out the bearing for a more quiet one :)
I didn’t make a video of the comfort wheel fidget spinner hack because it’s too similar to my comfort wheel hack. You can follow the comfort wheel hack video but instead of drilling a hole in the wood block to fit the bearings, you drill a hole to fit the 5/16” carriage bolt. Drill a hole in the center of the wheel bigger than the bolt so the head of the bolt does not touch the wheel. Attach the fidget spinner to the back of the wheel with screws, washers and nuts. Insert the bolt through the wheel and fidget spinner with the head of the bolt is showing on the inside of the wheel. Add a nut to the bolt behind the fidget spinner. Insert the bolt through the wood block and add another nut to the back of the block. The bolt will not turn but the wheel and fidget spinner will turn because of the bearing in the fidget spinner. I hope that makes sense. I may make a video of it if I need another Comfort wheel :)
The funny thing is that I sometimes have to watch my own videos to remember how I did something ha ha. I get very focused on a task and once it’s complete I often forget what I did later. Materials used: One inch long 5/16 threaded carriage bolt, two 5/16 nuts, five 5/16 washers, three one inch long #8 machine screws, and three #8 washers. I just added this to the description so I can find it quick if I ever need to hack another wheel :)
Coconut oil will solidify so it will get gunky and probably sticky over time which will make the wheel slower. You can try it. It's safe to use. It should work for a while but probably get sticky and hard to clean off eventually. 🙂
What wheel are you using? Maybe drill the holes a tinny bit deeper? A little bit of hot glue can help it stay in place. If the stand is coming off when your hamster is using it then I would replace the wheel
@@coolwater411 Hmm maybe yours is defective. If you bought it new maybe you can exchange it at the store or website. If you got yours second hand it may not be the original stand. If you can't hot glue it , you can try securing it with sisal twine. Wrap the twine around the yellow piece and the horizontal bar near the base of the wheel. If that doesn't work then you will need to get a new wheel.
If you mean the wheel bounces a bit when your hamster runs then no this hack won’t fix that. The problem is the stand. The wire stand is too thin to support the weight of the wheel and hamster. The wobble is more noticeable for a Syrian hamster, so I used mine for a dwarf. You could change the stand to wood.
I repaired mine with rope and sticky tape and clambed it upside down at the cage. The ax got bended by a dwalf hamster when she felt one or more times because of the too less friction.
I currently have this wheel in the 12" size for my two female rats. They love it, and they run aggressively on it. I've tried it both attached to the wall of their cage and on its stand, and find that when it's on the stand, they move it around the cage too much. On the wall, it's fallen off twice (three times?) now. It seems like when they run on it, they jiggle the yellow plastic bit off and it comes right off. Their weight also seems to bend it away from the wall of the cage, which probably contributes. I really want to try your hack with a fidget spinner! Do you think the bolt for the 12" is the same size?
I'm not sure, but I think bolt would fit the 12". The bolt size I used is the closest fit to bearing on the fidget spinner. One trick that I use to keep the wheel on the stand from moving around is to put a rock on top the stand at the bottom. Maybe 2 rocks would work best to stabilize the wheel for your rats. Be sure to clean the rocks before using them. There's probably a way to rig the wheel to the wall so it doesn't fall but I would have to see it to try and figure it out. If the wheel is spinning as it should I wouldn't try to hack the wheel but rather the stand and wall attachment. Maybe you could leave the wheel on the stand and zip tie or wire it to the wall? I'm thinking that a couple of rocks to hold it in place is the best option :)
Currently the wheel is attached to the stand still, and the stand is upside-down, and I attached it with twist-ties to the cage bars, to give it more stability. The problem is that they run so aggressively, that the yellow plastic screw cap falls off. They've knocked it down twice since I've commented this, haha! It won't stay on anymore, and I think the yellow screw cap is stripped inside, so it won't attach to the bolt anymore. The good news is that, while I put the wheel down like a bowl, they are using it for wrestling matches, which keeps them entertained! I'll have to venture out and see if I can find the proper tools to attach it like you did, where the screw cap isn't holding it together. :)
@@lynnterry6511 Oh how funny! You discovered a great new way to use the wheel ha ha. I wonder if you could replace the yellow cap with a nut. If you can figure out what size the bolt is then you can find the right size nut. I wonder if a little hot glue would help keep the yellow cap on long enough for you to find a replacement or to do this hack. I would feel a little bad taking away their wrestling arena though :)
Hammy Time I’ve ordered a different wheel for now, haha! I’ll definitely keep their wrestling ring for them to use, though! I might try that but idea though, that’s a good one! Thanks :)
My chinchilla makes so much noise at night but I don’t think it’s his wheel I think it’s the cage, I attached it to the cage and it makes the whole cage shake but when it’s not attached his wheel moves all over the place when he’s on it
I use a sanitized rock to hold the wheel stand base in place. If a rock doesn't work you could try to tape down the base to keep it from moving. Just make sure he doesn't chew on the tape :)
Be sure to clean it often because it solidifies and will gunk it up, potentialy making it worse over time. I have one wheel that had sticky vegetable oil residue that took a long time to clean off and there is still a little bit I cannot remove
I have purchased so many wheels that are shit! They always break on me, if I can even get them to work in the first place. Kaytee owes me mad money LOL. I finally gave up and bought a Wodent Wheel.
I have yet to try a Wodent Wheel. I know a lot of people like them. I have had so many bad wheels that I only buy them off the shelf from stores now so I can test them before I buy :)
@@HammyTime I had a hard time finding the right size in stores that's why I bought them online. They always had either the 4.5" wheel for baby mice or the 11" for suger gliders but I couldn't find the 6.5" or 8". Just bad selection in the stores near me. I bought a Petzilla sunflower wheel but it is either too heavy for my dwarves to push or possibly broken? I'm gonna have to learn to fix them somehow or else I'm going to go broke LOL. I haven't had the Wodent Wheel long enough to give a proper review of it so I'll let you know my opinions on it after I observe it in use a little more.
@@beautyintheskies I did notice that the Comfort Wheels were sold out the last couple of times I looked. I wish we had better options in stores. The Wodent Wheel is only available online to me. I just looked up the Petzilla Sunflower wheel. It's so cute ! I can see what you mean though. If that's solid wood then it's probably too heavy for them to move. It would need a really good bearing to turn easily enough for a small hamster.
Seriously. Don't buy these wheels. They are complete trash. I'm not kidding. They all bend, they are held up by a small piece of thin plastic, they are noisy, the stand is trash, etc. Unfortunately this the closest to acceptable half working wheel that anyone sells in physical stores.
I agree. Even with my hack the thin wire stand is too weak, so when my hamster runs too fast it starts to wobble. These 10" silent spinners are only available online where I live. If I could have inspected it before I bought it, I would have known it was bad. There's a new brand called Niteangel that makes a nice 10" wheel. I just ordered it but it hasn't come in yet. The reviews are great and I can tell by the design that it's a quality wheel. Check out Victoria Raechel's latest video. She got a lot of Niteangel products that look awesome. Hopefully stores will pick up the brand soon :)
@@HammyTime I was surprised when I got it home that those two little plastic pieces that it sits on are all that hold it up on the stand and that it kind of leans a bit new. The wheels look pretty nice, so it's unfortunate and they are a good price. I noticed about two days after getting it that the wheel had fallen off. Not sure the hamster would have been happy if that happened while running lol. P.S. I know a lot of people are buying the silent runners on Amazon for about $40, but the maker of those are selling them for $25 on their site and they give you options for what to buy with it making it possibly a bit more or less.
@@mtpstv94 Yes, I have heard that some wheels have broken off. The 10" Silent Spinner is a very poor design. A few years ago the Kaytee company was asked to make a 10" wheel and when they finally did it was a huge disappointment. I hope Niteangle will motivate them to make better products.

Tell me why the other day I was thinking of makin a homemade wheel with a fidget spinner
I currently have this wheel in the 12" size for my two female rats. They love it, and they run aggressively on it.

@@mtpstv94 Yes, I have heard that some wheels have broken off. The 10" Silent Spinner is a very poor design. A few years ago the Kaytee company was asked to make a 10" wheel and when they finally did it was a huge disappointment. I hope Niteangle will motivate them to make better products.
Lol. Tweaker? Maybe? Lol. Jkjk. Thnx!
Eu fiz ficou ótimo, dá trabalho mas vale a pena. Porquê do geito q ela vem ñ tem nada de silênciosa, fabricante mentiroso propaganda enganosa.
Yay! I'm happy you could fix it :)
