Everybody hates making them. Especially if you have a lot of them to make.
OK. So, I will soon be needing to make wheels. Now at 1/4 scale buying wheels is out of the question. I was thinking of making one wooden wheel plug and making several molds out of it. I can then use the molds to make more of the exact wheel. This is time consuming though. And I'm not quite sure what materials to use. I don't have a lathe, And I don't think I can justify to the wife why I need one. The tank in question is a 1/4 scale Tiger II and the wheels need to be 7-3/4" to 8" in diameter and I would like them to look realistic as well. I can compromise on the look a bit I guess. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was considering cutting out 36 discs and using 8" poly pipe as the tire just like Dave Manson's tanks from Scaledtanks.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
