Wheel of Fortune

Short Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvzt076rY1M This Wheel of Fortune allows you to randomly select 1 from 42 single outputs. I wrote 42 activities to do during the week, such as sports, movies, hiking, picnics, good restaurants, and cleaning the house. You can make any game out of it, involving drinks or anything else. I printed little papers measuring 3.9 x 6.3 cm and rolled them along the longest direction, creating a cylinder 3.9 cm tall. You can choose from 42, 21, 14, 7, or 6 outputs for similar probability. If you want a wheel with the outputs written on it, you'll need to print one yourself using paper with an inner diameter of 40 mm and an outer diameter of 180 mm. To spin the wheel, you'll also need a bearing with an outer diameter of 30 mm, an inner diameter of 10 mm, and a thickness of 9 mm. The thickness can be slightly different, but I recommend thick walls (>3 mm) to prevent the shaft inside the bearing from breaking. Print the Wheel of Fortune with almost no support, lying it down on its base (only a bit of support for the "spring pointer").
