Lay it out on a piece of drywall covered plywood with a compass, drill a hole for the hub to sit into, place the rim on the outer circle and block it into place with bricks or iron blocks, tack 3 spokes into place, remove wheel and finish welding. A bit of sledge adjustment may be necessary for true running.

I was thinking of making some wheels too.I was planning on using maybe 8 in.heavy wall pipe cut maybe inch and 1/2 or 2 inch wide.Was going to use 1/2 in. or 3/4 in. pipe for center hubs.Flat stock for the spokes.Probably 6 spokes.I wasn't too concerned with being perfectly centered.After all,the carts are usually pulled around by hand.You got any other ideas?Pollack Pete
