VigLink is adding links in your post, too. My last thread has screwy links to Brownell's Firearms, too.

Tom, I'm sure the moderators will take care of anyone trying to hijack your thread. Keep posting mate- your balsa wheels really look the part.

I too tried to build wheels from balsa wood. However, they broke apart when sanding them on a Dremmel rotary tool or a hand drill. So I switched to plywood sanded and shaped on my mini lathe with better results. However, it was a lot more work to shape the wheels. Now, I just laminate card stock that I cut using a circular cutter , shape it on a my mini lathe and find it best.

Information in case you want to try it.
