I would like to make wooden ride on toys for my grandson. I am thinking like a small trike or maybe a push toy. I have been searching high and low, but cannot find a source for small'ish rubber tires (something around 5" - 8" dia).
I see a lot of such toys for sale on-line and know that I could make something just as nice myself. Many have plastic wheels with rubber tires (easy to find online), but I do see some with solid wooden wheels and simple flat rubber tires (sort of like small, thick bandsaw tires). These have a much classier look, but I cannot seem to find a source for those tires.
Any ideas?
