    I wonder if you can replace the wheels with a stem type swivel wheel, instead of the plate style swivel wheel. Would the stem fit through the hole and work just as well? Then you wouldn't need to worry about the bolt pattern for the plate.

      Hi Moses, in theory yes you can, if the stem comes with a 2 big washers, placed inside & outside and tighten the nut, it should be strong enough. Also, the stem hole must be snug when new stem wheel is fitted. If its wobbly, it'll wear out the hole quicker. Hope that helps!

    When you put the screws at 24:50 there is nothing on the other side at all? no nuts no anything? just the resin thing will hold the screws in place? Thanks

      HI Anthony, nope, I did not put any nuts on the other side. You could find small bolts and nuts set, then apply resin to stop the nuts to undo themselves when in use. Hope that helps! :)

      I think you could find them on eBay, if you're in UK, B&Q is a good place to find them too

    I called a luggage place to replace wheels I want inline skate wheels and they told me those suitcases wheels cant be replaced with inline skate wheels. I dont want my wheels to break if I travel. I have spinner wheels 4 wheeled suitcase any suggestions?

    • @sitb-
      @sitb-  2 роки тому

      Hiya, thanks for your comments. We'll the shop has a point that your suitcase can't have inline skate wheels as they could only go on those 2 wheeled suitcases that have a wheel on each side.
      However, if your suitcase wheels are not yet broken or jammed, you could lubicate them well with 'general purpose' grease that usually comes in a brownish or off white colour. Use a syringe to squidge grease into the spinner bearings and also the wheel shaft, wipe off the access with tissue and discard. If you're on a long walking trip with the suitcase, it's worth to bring some grease to spare if they get dried out in dusty conditions.
      Avoid using WD40 or similar as they dry out and wear out the plastic/metal contact points -which leads to jamming or breaking.

      yes, I think you could order a set of caster wheels from aliexpress to be posted to India. Make sure the size is correct before paying 😁

    Annoyingly my suitcase fabric lining is sown in all around with no zip, so I would have to rip-out/undo the stiching to replace a wheel in this way.

    You should show how to replace wheels. I see your showing how suitcase is made. I stopped when you were giving the construction of suitcase.
