Answers: Can you build a walking wheel out of shoes for a bicycle?

Walking wheel mechanism
Bicycle wheel modification
Laser cutting wood
3D printed components
Omni-directional wheels

What it concludes

The walking wheel with shoes rolls on the ground but has too many extra joints and cannot fit on a standard bike in that configuration.
Using a metal plate with a plywood base for the central hub works much better than the 3D printed version.
