ABSTRACT:
Wheels of model cars rotate upon axles and their rims contact a track. The present invention is a palm size hand powered lathe for rounding and truing a wheel upon a spindle. The lathe has a bracket that admits a blade to contact the outer edge of the wheel. The blade advances into the wheel by the turning of a threaded rod contained within a housing. The housing limits the inward and outward movement of the blade. The threaded rod has a handle upon one end and a rounded head upon the other end that engages a slot in the blade. A clip provides a rigid connection of the threaded rod to the bracket. The housing has a shape comfortable in the hand. And the invention provides a child the ability to remove wheel material within thousandths of an inch.
