Thanks Dave

Please find attached another photo of the Spoked Wheels.  Sorry about the quality of the image, the wheel is a bit clumsy (this is an early version) but it gives the general idea.

Thank you for your interest.

Regards
Steven Robson

The spoked wheel tutorial is in the Hints and Tips section, it is pinned so is at the top of the list.

Hi Des, I had patiently waiting for an update of the site, but until today, the top of the Hits and Tips is "How to drill 0.4mm and 0.5mm brass tubing to a larger bore size, not the Spoked Wheels.   :-\

Sorry if I'm being annoying...

The tutorial is posted here, on this forum, and not on the website.

This is a old, but interesting topic.
Does anybody know, where the tutorial is located now? I have no access to Des link  :(

Thanks,
Frank

Hi Frank

Thats an interesting question you ask. The tutorial appears to have vanished. The link that Des provided goes nowhere and even I can't access it, with my Forum owner's wizard hat on.

I will make inquiries and see where it may have vanished to.

Steven Robson who produced the wheels has not been active on the Forum since September last year.

Thank you David!
May be he made a business from it so do not want to share his know how anymore.
I think there are more posts about this topic in the construction threads, let's see.

Cheers,
Frank

Hi Frank

I contacted Steven who is looking for his copy of the tutorial to re-upload. If he can't find his I have Des' old hard drive archive files here and have started searching for the tutorial.

Steven says he's happy for us to upload it again if I find it ( he owns the copyright to the article) so bear with me as I trawl through the year 2012 and the gems in the vault. It was quite a year.

Stay tuned

cheers

Thank you very much Dave! But please don't stress yourself!
I wondered if something like that that is possible in 1/48, but I have also PE spokes from Eduard and Part as fallback.

Cheers,
Frank
