Wheels
The wheels are made of several parts.
First there is the "outer" part that contains 9 parts.
And second there is the center parts, contains 8 parts
The most "tricky" operation are making of the parts 47E and 47F.
Theese parts have to look good to make the overall look to be nice.
I'm struggeling a bit with the "bending" of theese parts,but with some patience they turned out pretty well.
