so im hearing about wheels being turned into bushings...
and im wondering how you do that and how they are?

some wheels have enough thane to cut full bushing depth out of.
Drill press, holesaw, Lathe if you're lucky.

You should be able to search up some good how-to's or just buy some from karrot.

karrot does it and im working on it. got my lathe setup. you dont need one, but still. search for "abec11bushings" and it'll come up. i have a set and they're the best bushing ive ever used. im really excited about making reflex bushings...

yes, he glues many bushings together around a plastic disc so you can use them as wheels, they're moar awesome than killer robots.

i read it once, i think you use a hole saw (measure out your bushing size), i think it was bout an inch give or take, then use a drill to create a hole in the center. 3/8 should work cuz that's how big kingpins generally are. search for it though cuz that was a very gross generalization.
