Man, what's the point of teaser videos if nobody looks closely at them. :yikes:

Yes, if you already know the wheel is going to do the job as expected.

$30/ea for trial and error can get expensive.

Depends on what you are shooting. I saw some pretty good shooters made from $5 AM stealth wheels this year.

Are you referring to this wheel in the AndyMark teaser? That hex bore looks pretty small. Is that a wheel AndyMark just had laying around, or do you think that's an upcoming product?

Hm... What's that plastic bit in the middle of the wheel? I hope it has some way to interface with a hex shaft nicely.

It looks to me like a .375 or even .25" hex bore.

Looks like it is the FTC bolt pattern so probably 6mm round or D bore with 6-32 bolts on a 16mm bolt circle. Most likely compatible with the new AM Nubs: http://www.andymark.com/AndyMark-Nub-p/am-nub.htm

I think you are right. That is likely an 8 mm (5/16") hex bore, so a nub would pilot in it.

Doesn't look like there's a nice way to adapt this to hex though :/

What "this" are you referring to?

I was looking at the hex bore in the white plastic hub. It appears to be 8 mm or 5/16" across the flats. If so, it will pilot on a nub's 8 mm boss. It also seems to have the 16 mm circle pattern of four holes that would suit a #6 screw.

So you could drive the wheel using 6 mm shaft through a nub, or you could drive it directly using 8 mm (5/16") hex shaft.

Or were you thinking about 3/8" hex?

Definitely not enough meat in the center to be able broach out to 1/2inch hex. The holes on the 16mm bolt circle would also clash with the points of the shaft.

Surely if you need to adapt it to use it, you might as well just make a hub from scratch.

It looks like there should be enough clearance to broach it.

It would end up looking like this if you tried to broach it to 1/2inch hex.

That would work just fine.

Definitely half inch.
