I googled MEMS Microwheel, and got some useful hits. It looks like they are mostly patents and technical journal articles, so you might be able to look up the patents, or read the journal articles at your local technical library. Here is one of the journal articles that looks useful:

What size microwheel are you wanting to fab? What is the application?
 
Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'
I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
