I am ready to start cutting out the wheels. It will be easiest to do them if I do a larger run. The process for cutting out the wheels requires me to set up my CNC mill in multiple configurations. 26 or 31mm widths. The tires these are designed for are the HPI vintage tires. If you'd like to run a different set, PM me or post here. Here are a couple of teaser pics. The chunk missing was a glitch in the code, but has been resolved in the PC simulations. Attached image(s)
