I noticed your model's scroll wheel isn't working properly. After checking online, I found a 3D print file for the scroll wheel. You might be able to swap out just the axle instead of replacing the entire wheel. However, it seems the axle is stuck due to glue. There’s a link to the model here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4876693

It varies by adhesive type. For example, CA glue tends to be difficult to remove. Sometimes warming the area slightly can make a difference.

Warm enough to prevent complete melting of the entire wheel

When melting the entire wheel, it seems unnecessary to pull out the shaft. The aim is to separate the shaft from the wheel using thermal expansion.
