felloe การใช้
- A felloe factory was built in 1877 by Thornburgh and Hirons.
- Additionally, felloes, top bows, cutter woods, wagon gears, shafts and poles.
- Each spoke ran through the middle felloe creating a series of handles beyond the wheel's rim.
- Early industries included a spoke and handle factory, sawmill, felloe factory, plate and plaster mill, and two flour mills.
- After many centuries wheels evolved to be straked with iron, a method of nailing iron plates onto the felloes to protect against wear on the ground and to help bind the wheel together.
- Because each group of three felloes at one time made up a quarter of the distance around the rim, the entire outer wooden wheel was sometimes called the " quadrant ".
- The main timbers used in a traditional wooden wheel are Elm for the nave, Oak for the spokes and Ash for the felloes although this can vary in some areas depending on availability of timber, climate and style of production.
- This was during the first year of the reign of King Edward 1st of England ( 1272-1307 ), renowned in some circles for being known as'The Hammer of the Scots'. tradesmen made wheels for carts and wagons by first constructing the hub ( called the nave ), the spokes and the rim / felloe segments ( pronounced fellies ) and assembling them all into a unit working from the center of the wheel outwards.
