I now have a Webpage for my Progress on cutting Wheels (Technic Hubs) for use
for your Large Steam Train Project. Its still in its early stages however some
of you might want to at least take a look and see. My first trial was to use a
Lathe, however with further investigation, I will be placing them on a Milling
machine where I don't have to worry about Shattering the hub. The cutting tool
would heat up the Plastic and dig in to fast.

If my next test works out and looks professional,I will open the service up to
those who would like me to cut your wheels for a Very Small Price. Stay Tuned.

Here's the New Webpage, Its also linked off my main LEGO Page.
