I'm looking for a pair of spare wheels for a couple of FoW Humber II AC… As far as I can tell, there is no option to buy spare wheels from FoW… I'm considering a 3rd model for the purpose of getting those wheels but I'm wondering if there is another (cheaper) model with two identical/similar wheels I could buy? I find it difficult to judge from the pictures… Any advice? |

I think you can contact them and say the blister was incomplete and they will ship the part. It may take a while. David |

Or just find a dowel of the right diameter and hope nobody notices. They won't. |

Greased Plastercine and epoxy glue is the cheapest, simplest way to make press moulds of things like wheels. I've done it many times. Nowadays, I'd probably use the heat moulding compounds you can buy (immerse them in hot water to make pliable) and green stuff for the end result but the effect – while neater – is similar. John T |
