I don't completely understand what you did. It appears you took an old one, took the top off of a new one, and put it on the old one. Is there a reason you didn't just exchange the new one for the old one?

The old one had a lot of wear and tear.

The wooden base is pretty important, to keep the wheel at an incline.

Lazy susan's don't come with the wooden base.
