Default RE: Another Mato Bogie modification thread.

YHR,Good job on the wheels.I read your casting how to and found it to be interesting but one qeustion came to mind,you used a 1/18 scale boogie wheel to make your mold.The wheel seems to have a stronger spoke,unlike the H/L stock wheels which seem to have a narrow spoke,was this the reason for using the 1/18 scale wheels? Did you attempt to cast using the H/L wheel as a pattern and it was to weak? Just qurious as to why you chose a different wheel as a template for your mold? Thanks Sax
