Ok so I've put this off untill I had some progress on my tumbler. After starting a half size one I scrapped it and went full size. I'm trying to go as close as I can to movie specs as I can so we'll see how I go. I'll put some pics up soon once I can work out how to. Thanks for everyone who has given me any info on the build. Much appreciated

I've managed to get an old sprint car tyre to work with for now. Not sure if it's the right size but it looks pretty close the size is 34/17/15

Looks great.

"I'm using a metal strip to hold it all together seems to be working alright" They make an adjustable framing angle that works great for this. 59 cents each at Lowes.
