This wheel of Fortune will allow you to randomly select 1 from 42 single output.
In my case I wrote 42 activities to do during the week (things like sport, movies, hiking, pic-nick, good restaurant, cleaning the house...).
You can make any game out of it, involving drinks or anything...
I printed little papers from 3,9 x 6,3 cm and rolled them along the longest direction (so I end up with a cylinder of 3,9 height).
You can choose between: 42, 21, 14, 7 or 6 outputs (for outputs similar probability).
If you want a wheel with the outputs written on it, you will need to print it yourself, you will need a disk of paper with inner diameter of 40 mm and outter of 180.
Also for spinning the wheel you will need a bearing of 30 mm outter diameter, 10 inner diameter and 9 mm thickness (thickness can be slightly different).
I recommend a quite thick walls (>3 mm), so that the schaft inside the bearing doesn't break.
Print with almost no support with the base lying down (only a bit of support for the "spring pointer").
