Hi
Anybody know how i can remove the old wheels ???? Is it glue ? I have tried everything but i cant remove them.
Hi stephaluche,
I guess the person I bought my Explorer from ( my mom gave away mine) just chopped the axl with big Pincers, and then grinded the end a bit to get a flat surface.
In the post from GR5 you can see a picture of how you can mount the printed wheel.
It takes some skills + the right equipment....so check your network if necessary.
Succes, and please post a picture of the result.
Kind regards,
Willem.
Hallo bedankt voor de download ik vraag aan iemand die ik ken om een wiel te maken.
De wielen heb ik met 2 metalen plaatjes links en rechts van het wiel afgepenst en zo kwam het wiel en de as er gewoon uit.

Ik probeer via 3dhubs te printen, maar welk materiaal moet ik kiezen? Ik heb nu Nylon, HPPA 12 en 1 print kost maar liefst €165.21. Doe ik dit juist of moeten er andere keuzes gemaakt worden voor de juiste print?
Please write in English that all others can follow the thread as well.
Thanks!

If you want them printed in Nylon... you will pay the price they ask for printing in Nylon...
Dutch: als je ze in Nylon geprint wilt hebben, zal je de prijs die ze daarvoor vragen moeten betalen...
If you choose for PLA one wheel will cost €29,51...
Dutch: als je voor PLA kiest kost 1 wiel €29,51...
If you order 2 or more, they will get cheaper...
Dutch: bestel je er 2 of meer dan worden ze goedkoper...

Why on earth does these wheels seem so popular?
Is this some sort of popular toy?

I have also been wondering about that. I have seen the toy a couple of times, yes. But I think with a bit of searching in a hobby-shop or brico-shop, people should be able to find replacement wheels, like the standard wheels for shopping carts, or chairs,...
Anyway, 3D-printing them will be an excellent test of layer-bonding. If kids can't destroy it, then nothing will. :-)
Lol, for sure.
It just seems like it's really popular, I say that only having seen it here, but I'm just surprised so many people went through the trouble of signing up here JUST for that.

Hi All,
I have read this conversation with a lot of interest. I live in Belgium (Brussels), and our Fisher Price Explorer's wheels are beyond repair. I would be very interested to know if someone can help printing four wheels, and at what price that would be? Thanks again for any feedback/help!
Best wishes, and happy winter greetings to all!

I think the easiest, cheapest and fastest solution would be to go to a brico-shop, section "cart wheels". Wheels with a 100mm diameter start from around 10 euro. They will be much more durable than 3D-printed wheels, and much cheaper. You could use cart wheels, remove the outer metal holder, and only keep the wheel. In brico-shops, they also sell metal rods for making the axis.
Hubo has a huge selection of wheels:
