Looks nice! On some of my older 2x2 wheel bricks there is a gap which allows the axle to be removed and/or snapped into the brick.

My advise is: Don’t try this at home! Those tap or clips broke very easily even when they were new, and I guess time hasn’t made then less fragile... Then we had to fix them with a 3022 Brick 2x2 or a broken 650 Nylon Coupling

   On the newer bricks the metal axle cannot be removed (looks similar to your ldraw part).

That was a very good upgrade from TLG.

   I’ll see if I can find a couple for comparison.
