Seconding the notion about the massive wheels. If it's not under 2", it's definitely too big.

Seriously though, what is it with you people and not using buttonheads?
Thanks!

Unless I need them because of clearance issues, I prefer to avoid using button heads. The smaller hex size is much easier to strip and doesn't allow for as high tightening and loosening torque. Additionally, button heads are weaker (compare alloy steel button heads and socket head cap screws on McMaster Carr, minimum tensile strength of 120ksi for button heads, 170ksi for socket head cap screws).

Sure, I'll upload both of them to GrabCAD.
