Re: 1114 and 2056's shooter wheels
As a couple of others have pointed out the McMaster part number for these wheels is 2477K36 and the description is: "Large-Bore Urethane Drive Roller, 60A Durometer, 4" Diameter, 0.92" W, 1-1/4" Bore ID". 2056 first used these wheels in 2012, so we decided to try them out this year. They were easy to work with and incredibly robust. They did require a custom hub, but it was a fairly simple part to machine. A drawing of the hub is attached.
Edit: 2056 posted the same info above.
