Dear all Modellers. Here i am putting my way of making Tail Wheel or Draging wheel for fomies and other crafts. May it help some beginners . It is a very easy way and well strong enough and can be mount easily.

Materials need
1) Wheel
2) cycle spoke with ribit
3) Control horn

Now first take your control horn. Drill a hole in the control horn so that the cycle spoke can get through it easily.

Insert your wheel from the threaded end of the cycle spoke and place the ribit. mark the spoke where the wheel side ends. as shown  in the pic

with the help of plier bend the spoke from the marked point.
Insert the spoke from one end of the Control horn, through the drilled hole.
Now cut the spoke to a certail level and try to insert the other end in one of the three holes of the control horn.

Here we are finished with the tail wheel. Just let the spoke to get into the hole of the Control horn, this will help the wheel to lock  in its place, without wobble. Also take care that there should be enough space between the base of horn and the wheel to run freely. The ribit acts as collet .  The rest two left holes in the horn can be used to screw to the fuselage.
   Isn't it simple .  :)
