I noticed Fram had posted a link to a Mono wheel in another thread which reminded me I've a 90%(ish) finished one knocking around (definitely in butterfly mode this year).
So while I'm taking pictures of finished bit for others. I thought I might as well see if anyone was interested in this.
Mark.

Yes, there's more 'chunk' to this one than others I've seen, additional realism from my perspective.

...whose recoil would help propell the wheel: Shoot More = Go Faster!
Shoot just one (side) and give a bonus to a turn (at a cost to accuracy, of course).
A cannon for a brake?
This stuff just writes itself.

Figured you'd like it armed
It's already got a mounting for a Lewis gun. Just requires a chunk of blue tack to hold it in place. Which doesn't translate well in a photo(so I left it out of the original photographs.)
Matt. It'll be a multi part kit once I've dotted the I's and crossed the T's.

By the by, shouldn't there be pedals under his feet?
Or are they moulded onto the boot and I just can't see that very well (the soles look a bit thick, but it's hard to tell in the photos if those are footplates under the boots or not).

Only you
I make a perfect circle with in a perfect circle ,and you notice he's got platform shoes.
The shoes do need thinning down,and the soles applying. The foot pegs will be added to the bike after the boots are finished.(Applying a little artistic licence to the positioning will help.)
It also needs a second fix on the riders selves,and additional bits added to the engine.(again rider first to ensure the neatest fit.)
I did mention its only 90%(ish) done
