The wheels been made by a vehicle designer for me out of plasticard square section heated up and formed into a circle - the most expensive part of the model but well worth it.

Thanks for the info. I am still thinking about how to design proper wheels of this kind, my best idea so far is MDF lasercut.

3D printing would be better, you can alter the wheek depth to hub whereas with 2D laser cutting the wheel will be flat.

Yes, the depth of the hub is my main concern. I was thinking about making a rim and the hub from MDF then adding the spokes from plastic rod. Then it can be cast in resin. Thing is, I can make laser cut (=I can design stuff and order cutting it), but 3d design is above me.

They look nice, do they have a game purpose, or just for diorama fun?
