Steering Toylanders in the right direction.

While having the sole South African rights to producing the Toylander from Real Life Toys under a strict licence agreement,we have made some of our own changes as we built our own car,Isuppose its natural development.The first thing was to do away with the 20x 20mm body cleats made from wood,then design in our Finger Joints,making the assembly really easy,now we have our own type of steering wheel too,using the template supplied in the regular builders manual.We made the wheel larger than its 190mm diameter as shown and re did it at 250mm diameter and also cut it in 16mm MDF,which is harder and should be stronger than a wheel in 12mm plywood.

You may choose to round off the corners with a router cutter but the wheel will work well as it is.
