[WWI] Spoked wheels wasRE: Loyd CII

[Crawford Neil]

Heres a picture before I painted it. It's a little trailer thing for 
towing aircraft. You see them in lots of photos from the twenties and thirties,
I imagine they were used in the Great War too. The spokes are akita, glued up
with CA, and I used the extra brass rims to thicken the wheels. Then I just 
painted on Mr. Surfacer 1000, two or three coats till they looked right
It was very simple.
