Pinewood Derby Wheel

thingiverse

This isn't a direct copy, nor is it permissible to use non-BSA wheels for competition purposes. This "ceremonial" wheel was designed for the cubs instead of offering a participation ribbon. It's capable of fitting onto a car, and we strongly encouraged the cubs to attach it to their car after the race so in future years they would instantly recognize when their car was built. To view details about the vehicle, please visit http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:735561, while images of the driver are available at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:726447. Instructions: This model was created with OpenScad and can be easily modified using the provided script. Two different wheel designs are included – one plain and one featuring added text. I employed Inkscape to generate the circular text (convert objects to path), followed by Tinkercad integration (see https://tinkercad.com/things/iQb4edo033e).
