Model Wheels for Horse-Drawn Vehicles |
The wheels are the most difficult part to make for your model horse drawn vehicle. If you decide you do not want to make your own, I have a few sources
for wheels. Prices will depending on how authentic you want your wheels to look
and what materials that are used to make them. The wood wheels are hand cut and assembled. Minimal sanding will be
needed before being stained or painted.
The other wheels below are plastic and composition type
wheels. I keep a few of these wheels in stock - large
orders may require two weeks to fill. |
