This is the business part of the lift. It does the lifting.

1: The wheel
2: Start by making a "Claw"
3: That claw thing upside down
4: Another view of that. Those are y connectors on the oranges
5: Make three more
6: Make this part. Easy
7: Make these for spokes
8: Make this hub. Make sure to only put one grey cap on per rod
9: What one end should look like
10: What the other end should look like. Once again, no more than one grey cap per blue rod
11: Another view
12: Put the spokes on like so
13: What it should look like
14: Break that piece you had before so you can place it around the hub
15: Put it back together one it is around
16: Cross-snap the grey rods onto the white connectors

Finished the wheel.
