    I got some LEGO Technic wheels, but .......


    I dont like it, way to slim.


    Here with an old webcam as example.


    That just is wrong, so I looked for wheels at ebay and sorts, but they all come in pairs of 4.


    Found this at the local garage-sale: a toy car for 0.50 euro cents.


    But I needed 6, so i threw in another whole euro !


    This is much better !

    I spraypainted the black spfere in dull-white, but because of the tracking motormovement inside, I could not paint the front half.



    The shortened rod with the rubber beside it.


    And mounted to the cam.


    The painted hubs with the tires. Too bad not 6 exact the same, but it will have to do.


    Assembled the wheels and connected the LEDs. What do you think of my webcam mod?
