Canadian’s - where are we buying hardware? I do know that McMaster-Carr does ship this way, but I was hoping to not need to worry about international shipping.
I purchased all my hardware from Amazon.
These are the parts I used. The only challenge is the bolts are expensive and the casters only come in large packs. I’m sure there are smaller quantities available but I’ve been printing multiples of chairs. I’m sure there are also cheaper alternatives. You could reference these for size and spec and find equals I’m sure.

Thank you so much Evan. I really appreciate the links. I may try and source nuts/washers/screws locally and order the bearings and casters on Amazon. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Hi Evan,
I ordered the 4” wheel from Amazon which fit great. However I ordered the 1-1/2” wheels you linked and did not fit due to them being a ‘brake’ version. Maybe the product link has changed>?
For others in Canada ordering, make sure the front casters do NOT have a brake as it will interfere with the mount.
I will order these and try, they appear to be the proper specs and have no locks. $16 for a pack of 4.

Thanks for providing the other hardware sizing! I own a hardware store, and I’m actually Manitoba’s Bambu dealer
, So I luckily had all of the filament, bearings, nuts, bolts, and washers on my shelf!
