[Kartbuilding] HI!

Hi Andrew,

You could use the wheels from a childrens bicycle. See:

You could use wheels from an old trolley.
I know I used wheels from a Wheelbarrow.

I suggest you ask your neighbours to see if they may have any wheels. You 
could also keep an eye on any skips or rubbish/parts that people throw out 
as you may find suitable wheels there. See: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumpster_diving


It can be hard finding 4 wheels the same size. If you can find 2 small 
wheels for the front and 2 large wheels of the same size for the rear that 
will work ok.

Best of luck,
-steve
