Default Re: Searching for bigs loaders tires...

B-Train Hauler-making these large tires may be the best option provided someone has the skills and machinery to do it. The tires are easy to make but the master part (plug) is the hard part. The master would need to be machined from a solid pc. of stock- wood, aluminum, delrin, etc. and build the mold from that. The tires will be costly since it will take a lot of liquid rubber for a tire this size. A few years back TD-9 clyde was looking for large tires for a scraper he built and could not find anything. If I remember, I think they were in the 7"-8" range but no luck. Good luck-sounds like this will be a really large model!!
