The Fok hand made wheel selection. From left to right: Medium duty silk spoke wheel, heavy duty Kevlar spoke wheel, and last, the super duty wood core wheel. Maybe I do have a future as a wheelwright????

Snazzy looking wheels. What is this Kelvar spoke???

Kevlar, AKA, bullet proof, thread. Try to break it by hand and you cut the digits!!!!

What are the tires made from? A large O ring (no pun intended) Do they come preformed or do you need to join them to form the circle?

Foam chord. If you look carefully you can see the glue seam. CA is very aggressive with the foam. Just a dab and a push and the tire forms.

At the bottom of the one on the right, right? Who cares, they look great.

Fine sanding and a dab of paint can make it invisible. The super duty are destined for the "Magic Box" for future endeavors. This bird gets silk!
