The rest of a 16th century limber I can scratchbuild, but wheels I need to buy.

Lord Hypnogogue04 Apr 2006 11:23 a.m. PST

How many?

Lord Hypnogogue04 Apr 2006 11:26 a.m. PST

I have a few from my Mighty Armies box I don't plan on using.

Rogue, please drop me a line at les_howie(at)yahoo.com and we should be able to work something out. Nice thing about 16th century is there were no standards, so there are all sorts of ways to mix and match.

Check Musket Miniatures, too.

Musket was my first thought, too. I stocked up years ago on the (then Stone Mountain) ACW artillery wheels to improve "other" manufacturers. Still got lots of packs of them, and no, I'm not giving them up! But they make very nice wheels, IMO.

Wheels are one of those items that a manufacturer uses a LOT of, and thusly makes high production molds of them!

We sell 15mm wheels (large or small) for 25 cents each with dropping prices for bulk buys (100 at a time).

Not many folks need 100 wheels, but 25 cents each covers costs.

Minifigs would be good ones, too, especially as they will have the medieval/Renaissance style of iron-bound wheel for their models of the era (e.g. Hussite war wagons).

Thanks, Tom, I`ll include some in my forthcoming post easter order. I don't think I'll need 500 either.

Irregular, I got my replacement wheels for Airfix chariots from there.

Where in Irregular are the 15mm wheels listed?

Mad Mecha Guy02 Feb 2017 3:37 p.m. PST

best to email them & ask how much.

Try Grandt Line "1:48 scale Popcorn Wagvon Wheels
Gandt Line products 104 B Shcary Court Concord CA 94518
95- 671 0143.
The above is for a small cart in "op" guage but it fits your scale well. On the other hand you can look up "Model Railroad Wagon Wheels" in N guage as well. The model railroaders have all sorts of stuff

None known in Irregular but Stone Mountain has them – or did.
