A while back I bought a cheap chinese "mini lathe" for the purpose of turning down plastic wheels to make as inserts.
I have used it for various things, but not that, until today.

After working on some Fly MAN trucks for a friend, I was that pleased with how I got them to go, I ordered myself a pair of Merc's.
As I had exhausted Pendle's supply of components I used on his, I had to work it differently for mine.

While awaiting their arrival, Today I started work on trimming down tyre widths etc (on the mini lathe).
I was actually going to leave the wheels sans inserts as they IMO don't look massively out of place on a truck.

But then I thought I would have a go at turning down the fronts left over from my friends build.

It worked a treat:

   
Unfortunately the back wheels are a lot harder to do, so its back to plan A and sans inserts
