I just got my ferret nation and flying saucer wheel and was wondering how to mount the flying saucer to ferret nation. I have seen others do it and was wondering how.
 
I've mounted the 3 we have to one of the short sides of the FN. Then I mount it at the middle horizontal bar using two of the 3 supplied U bolts. I make sure that I put the bolt through at a diagonal. Pick a spot where a vertical bar meets the middle horizontal bar. Put one part of the bolt through the top left and the other through the bottom right. Then I use the last bolt to attach it as low as I can get it to a vertical bar.
 
We get longer U bolts and drill holes in a KD pine board that will span the height of one section of cage and then mount the wheel to the cage. It helps steady the wheel and keep it quiet.
