it may be alot of weight to rotate, but it will be stronger. you can use a wire cloth hanger. cut a piece where it is completely straight. so no bends, and warps. then you would have to enlarge the flywheel, holes in the wheels, and the slot to put the axle in. but it would resolve the breaking axles problem.
and for wheels, it's just an idea, but maybe we can find some sort of "slicks" some large pencil eraser ends. those huge pencils you use in elementary school, and sometimes in sketching. the rubber erasers are huge, and would be interesting to try. but the axle may slip from that, so then i thought of another idea, to find something to cut the tips of the wire hanger, so it is like a hook. so you can put the rubber eraser in, then it gripps tighter from the sides. and super glue the end for a little more help.
