Rotacasters seem to be popular omni-wheels, but they're prohibitively expensive for me (~$40 USD for a pair). Has anyone ever tried these? If so:
Do they work? (roll smoothly, fit lego axles with the hub, are fairly durable/reliable, etc.
or: Are there any other LEGO omni-wheel solutions?

I didn't try them. I like the Rotacasers a lot. It is a pitty they sell them by the pair though, you normally need three.

Found these as well but price is for only 1 wheel & postage is high- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-58mm-Plas ... 33855a674b
A sophistical rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command an interminable and inconsistent series of arguments to malign an opponent and to glorify himself.
