Default How Do You Put a Wire Wheel on a Bench Grinder?

The shaft on a bench grinder is threaded to hold a grinding wheel, not
a wire wheel. The center of a wire wheel is much thinner, so the
shaft isn't threaded to draw up on the thin wheel.

How do most people mount the thinner brush-wheel on the smooth
unthreaded zone of the shaft?

Wire wheels are great. I use mine much more than my grindstone
(mostly to clean up old or rusty tools and other things).
