What are the measurements of the wheel on Wheel of Fortune?

Answer 1

According to the Wheel of Fortune website:"The Wheel" is framed with steel tube on which tiers of Plexiglas are placed supported by stainless steel rods. Over 200 specialized, computerized lighting instruments capable of up to 2 million different color choices are interwoven into the framework. It is all topped by the Wheel which spins on a stainless steel shaft supported by roller bearings. Seventy-three stainless steel pins fly past three hard rubber "flippers" giving it an unmistakable sound. In all it weighs in at a little over 2400 lbs. And because there is only one Wheel, it is dismantled and reassembled wherever the show travels to tape in a different location.
