New News Im going to the machine shop to do some pratice runs on turning some aluminum wheels. Iwill let every one know by saterday!!!! These will be 2 part wheels with no centers ,you will have to use the hubs from www.dirtmodeler.com . Im not sure how much these will be or even if they will be a forsure but wer gonna give them a try !!!!

are they passable as "wrecked" wheels? Dent them with a hammer and presto, bent wheels for a diorama or even a trashed car.

If they come out well mate you could get them cast in resin as well.
