I came across an interesting method for making a roulette  wheel in a copyof Ceramics Monthly handbook  " Great Ideas for Potters" page 98.  It says awooden clothes pin ( the old fashioned kind-with no spring in it) makes agood handle for a rouletting disk.  You mount the disk between the tines ofthe clothes pin with a small nail. The nail holds the wheel in place andacts as an axle on which the wheel rotates.  I haven't made one yet but itis on my "to do" list.  Hope this helps you.Sandi
