Thanks Dwight, it'll be a while until it's done as everything has to be made, but, it's a labor of love, so keep watching... it'll get better, I promise!

Garey,
Thinking ahead, have you determined a source of the tires to be used?

Nice work. Are you soldering or brazing?

Paul, I will probably have to cast the tires from rubber. I have a good pair of scale 15" Goodyears from an old Monogram kit. They're both the same size, so I'll have to section one to a narrower width and then cast them both in 2 piece silicone molds. Not a big deal.

Secondly, I'm soldering. I have a couple of irons of different sizes, a bunch of torches in different sizes and a resistance soldering rig, also. Depending on what I am working on, dictates which type of tool I use.

Thanks for the questions and keep watching,

Garey
