Problem was I went over board with putting weight over the wedge/axe so it would be a super effective wedge (Like Schmackhed), but it ended up having so much weight over the nose it really affected the center of rotation and steering. I'm going to aim to balance that out a little better this time with more weight towards the axle to allow it to spin faster and easier.

Hopefully it will be able to do some over head thwack attacks this time Smile

Do you have an outer hub on them or just the inner rim? Hard to tell, but yeah if you have the outer hub get rid of that. Smile The weight is worth it!
