Re: Making Wheels Round

My .0965 will just be a tad loose. Yet the .0970 will be to tight to fit still. I only have .0005 increment...

How do you feel about the spoon cars ? The design and shape. You pleasedo with them ? Sporty the spoon is awesome. I think that once you understand the key design principles of PWD cars you can make any shape/style reasonably fast... but the spoon is something that is very achievable with minimal t...
