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! |
