Step 5Rear Wheels
iImage Information

The rear wheel materials consist of a large rope bucket ($8) with the ropes removed, some house siding flashing ($3 for 10' run at Home Depot), and some cut/painted hardboard and 5/8" plywood (scrap) for the bottom (because the bucket was too deep). I cut a piece of plywood into a pentagon, painted it gloss black and added the foot from an old tape deck along with some bolts to make the center cap.
The second photo shows another 1-1/2" pvc end cap screwed on the opposite side of the bottom plywood so that the wheel can attach to the rear axel. The other pictures go through the painting, assembly and finished wheels.
