We made some a few years ago. Admittedly, they aren't VEX legal or cheap or extremely strong. Dad was running some SLS tests at his work and slipped a few wheels in, one of our sponsors cut the rollers and pins to hold them. They worked for testing with Edubot and so should work with VEX if we ever wanted to try.
