   This MOC started out as a self propelled Znap wheel about two years ago. You can see a movie of the original here. About a month ago, I decided to see if I could build a similar wheel, but make it steerable.

My first attempts were wobbly because I only had enough Znap for 3 circles, so I couldn’t make two wheels more than a brick wide. I ordered some more curves off Bricklink. The next problem was keeping the two wheels attached to each other without the central axle falling apart. I tried various solutions before finally coming up with the final version, which has a Technic framework passing through half cylinders. Tires mounted on the large wheels roll over the cylinders with ease.

Brilliant!
