Wheels of Time (WoT) – Timeless Creations

Creation inspired by the most iconic masterpiece in history . . . The Wheel!

Believed to emanate in solid (unspoked) wooden disc form c.4500BC as a Potter’s Wheel.

Present day life: the Wheel is taken for granted, overlooked & assumed. The Wheel hasn’t changed (it’s still circular)! Any refinements have been with regards to the axle, the perimeter & means of motivity.

My wheels are based on a Traction Engine (akin to my passion for recreating classic Steam Locomotives in LEGO). Featuring: skeletal members; relatively small hub for an axle; minimalist rim carrying a chevron tread tyre.
