Sanding Wheel Parts
TIP:
Start with sanding both sides of all 48 wheel tread
pieces so the brown residue has been removed (8A).
Sand both sides of the wheel rim locking pieces (8B).
File off the brown residue on the insides of each wheel
locking piece, this will help with mounting each wheel to the
axle later.
This shows what sanded looks like next to unsanded.
Sand the surface of round wheel pieces as shown above
- Sand both surfaces of inside wheel pieces (small holes) x8
- Sand one surface of outside wheel pieces x8
See step 9A for final sanding photo condition.
Sand lightly, test fit individual tread pieces with four wheel
parts sandwiched together. Sand as needed.

TIP:
I found when mounting each wheel to the axle, I had to
file a notch into the wheel rim locking piece as shown above.
This helped tremendously with sliding on and making sure
each wheel would spin freely. This is discussed in step 9F.
