Nice video, congratulations for your 6-month achievement! About the rubber with steel core you made tire with, is this an industrial rubber, a general toy purpose rubber, how do you call it, or how is it known on australian market ? Thanks for posting

The tyre materials are hard to come by. The instructor has a die made and gets it produced. There are people who sell the rubber try googling oamaru ordinary cycle club they often have rubber and parts .

Do you sell the built Penny Farthings by any chance? :)

Awsome Bikes, and very funny video

How did you make Spokes. In this video shows an anvil and a hammer. Do I need anything else in order to do my own spokes?

[@gerardoignaciogarciarivera1979]

How did you calculate the length of the spokes?
Nice video
