I’m working on an ancient battlefield board and I’m going to need many carts and chariots. I scratch built these two wheels from coffee stirrers, plasticard, and nail beads. I’ll make a mold soon and cast these up so i can have a somewhat endless supply. Hopefully I can make some wagon wheels that have spokes as well for some variation.
**Update**
Made the molds for these and I’d say they were like 60% successful. Too much silicon got underneath the wheels so it was difficult to remove the originals from the molds and I had to cut a bunch of the silicon between the spokes. You can see it especially in the top left and bottom right spoked wheel. This is after I made some resin casts so the white stuff is some talc powder.
Here’s the resin casts. The spoked wheels broke in spots but for what I plan to use this for, that’s actually fine. They’re going to be ruined wheels on a battlefield.
