Re: Custom wheel making

I think a great model to apply in situations is WW2056D (What would 2056 do).

Across the board on their designs, they seem to much prefer to buy existing solutions from a variety of COTS sources even though they do have fabrication options.

This lets them finish sooner, and with less work.

We're trying to apply the WW2056D model versus the machine it all because you are capable of machining it all model.

For us, custom wheels are filed firmly in the ANGTFT category.

Re: Custom wheel making

Are team custom made these wheels in 07.

They are made from aluminium tubes with a aluminium disc welded in the centre. A live axle hub is welded to the disc. It was then sand blasted to give it a nice finish. The tread is riveted to the tube. In this case time was the majority of the cost.
