Replacement bearing flange for VEVOR pottery wheel

thingiverse

This is a replacement bearing hub for a VEVOR branded pottery wheel. The same pottery wheel is sold under countless other brands on Amazon/Aliexpress/wherever, and obtaining replacement parts for this wheel is impossible.Re-use the bearings from the old hub. Depending on your 3D printer, you may find the bearing holes are loose or tight. If they're tight, sand them out a little. If they're loose, use epoxy to glue them in. You may also have to drill out the hex bolt holes.Ensure that the motor pulley and big pulley are aligned when you've got the machine apart - when I was repairing this machine, I had to flip the drive pulley over on the motor. Otherwise the drive belt will rub against the edges of the pulleys, and might ride up on the lip of the big pulley - this is likely what caused the broken bearing hub. It can't be understated how much of a piece of trash this wheel is :)
