Who makes their own wheels?

In an effort to collaborate with my teaching comrades, I think a wheel project would be good. It is a great way to connect with a physics teacher with Newtons Laws of motion and overcoming the moment of inertia.

If any one has done this please offer advice.

We can use our Velox CNC to mill them out of aluminum and finish on a Lathe. We can also 3d print using PLA, ABS, and Polycarbonate.
