Wheels for a cordless drill gear motor | Any suggestions?

The guy in the DIY store doesn't have the backgroundf knowledge. And a M10 is close to a 3/8 UNF.
So yes, it looks like the standard 3/8unf.

Thanks a lot!

It would be a 3/8 Unc, and the brass nut thing would be called a brass coupling nut. Normally they are sink plated steel in their common form.

I made some easily on the lathe if you have access?

Unfortunately I don't think I know anyone with a lathe. Do you think it might be a good idea to order one made to the right size? Or is there places where you can rent the equipment?

Thanks again!

If you are able to, you could become a member of a local Hackspace or Makerspace where you will find like minded people and tools to help out.

Which wheels did you go for? I could make some and sell them to you for you to insert?

Renting equipment wouldn't be suitable for a lathe, and even the smaller ones from machinemart etc wouldn't be up for the job, although could do it at a push.

Tony those wheels look cool are you going to add some bike rubber ?
