Default RE: need some 6

All depends on the key words. I was searching for some old time balloon tires/wheels and finally a scale friend gave me the address. Thing is I was there on the site but they didn't come up? I needed them to be like the old free flight wheels of days gone by. My old WWI bipes with the William Bro wheels are foam filled rubber and very thin. I made up some balsa stands that fit on the axles ends to keep the tires off the ground or they went flat on a hot day, the plane would bounce down the runway, then I came up with the axle block idea.
