Hi Mark,

when could we expect an update? I'm really looking forward to it, with a 1/12 Caterham on its way....

Can't say exactly when. These things take time, the rims may be the next thing I finish, but who knows, they were the first parts I started on this project back in August and I have several parts and sub assemblies going now. Don't worry, I'll post as soon as I have something worthy... - Mark

O.k. I'll wait.
Meanwhile, have you seen these 1/12 Caterhams?: http://www.mycaterham.com/21102/15191.html

He's even milling the wheels. Not to mention his work on the engine.... I think he's in your league Mark!

I machined my own wheels too, but mine are a split 7 spoke (web?) design (divide that into 360 degrees). And done without the aid of cad/cam programs, all old school machining here... - Mark

Re: Blue Seven (Parts)

wow! i took all the CAD classes at my local community college. i can't even imagine how hard it would be to do without some type of CAD program. makes the work all that more impressive.

Finished Super Seven Wheels

Finished Super Seven Wheels
Well, except for the valve caps, thought I'd enjoy the the stems in the cores for a while... and the center caps, I haven't decided what style they'll be for sure yet... and they haven't been balanced yet either, that'll come later... - Mark
The tires are Tamiya, the rest is 100% scratch.

Ouch........I just fell off my chair when I saw your wheels. They're amazing! The valves or just unbelievable!

Will you be making and selling resin copies of those wheels?

Holy.... Those are hot. some progress shots of those rims would be awesome, since they are a masterpeice in itself (or themselves ).
