I pretty much followed the stinkin' directions (as my wife tells me) but substituted copper tube and brass jewelry pieces for the wood parts. I figured it would be much sturdier that way. |

| Creosotewind | Rogers 40mm Bofors AA cannon | Parked | 19-Feb-10 10:25 |  | | Views : 582 | | These are some other wheels I made or found. Metal washers on bolts worked well but then cut into the aluminum. The white wheel worked well. It is a roller from a sliding shower door. Almost there, but not quite yet. I think I have a better solution and will post a bit later. |

And then cut to size. Seemed to risky for me to play with fire and water. I tested making one out of aluminum and this wheel, which is aluminum rod and cardboard disks. As a first step it worked out fine. |
