DIY Sugar Glider Wheel Tutorial – Updated!

PLEASE follow my instructions and recommendations. Do not go crazy making random changes and improvising, especially if you don’t know what you’re doing. A badly made wheel could gravely injure or kill your glider(s).

If you think this tutorial is not good, then feel free to contact me to improve it. (tsugielove@gmail.com)
There are people out there who want to make their own wheels and if you think the wheel made from this tutorial, even though it follows the Fast Track design, is unsafe and you’re all about safety, then act on it.
I am very open to a discussion. I do not believe I know it all (as evidenced by all the updates I have made and the comments I have added as the time has passed).

I made a video tutorial as well. However, it is not as comprehensive as the written version. I highly recommend you check out both. https://youtu.be/O8DA3QFJFA8

I also made a breakdown of the cost to make them here: DIY Wheel Cost Breakdown

My gliders

I figured I’d post my sugar gliders. 🙂
I have five gliders. One female and four males.

Thinking on what to do

I created this blog just to have a place to post the wheel tutorial but I’m thinking maybe I can add other tutorials.
Maybe link other websites and make some other tutorials of my own?
I’ll think about it. 🙂

This tutorial is long! I provided a LOT of photos to make it easier to follow and understand.
I know it’s long but please read the full tutorial before making a wheel!
I re-read it a million times to make sure there were no typos but, alas, I am not perfect. So if you find any…just ignore them. (Or tell me and I’ll correct them. lol)
