Hello people. I wonder if you can help me please. I'm going to make a trailer, not the residential kind the transporting wares kind. I want to give it wheels with somewhat basic suspension, so I'll need axles without the bits the transmission attaches to drive the wheels.


I'd also like some bouncy off-road tyres for it, is there anywhere that sells the basic axles I'm thinking of with the suspension etc? Perhaps even a set with wheels, axles and suspension, I know Zinge industries do an APC suspension but that's not fitting the idea in my head.
It's an Orcy themed thing, though it's for Grots so quite small things can work if I get rid of the small detail. Just realised saying orcy is very vague since orc's aren't exactly rare among war games, I am meaning within the 40k/warhammer universe.

It was suggested to me to do leaf springs using thin plastic card anyone know what kind of thickness is good for this type of thing? So that it's still thin enough to put in hot water so it can be bent into curved shapes. If somebody can point me to a tutorial that has some sort of picture based guidance that would be super helpful. cheers
