2 Samuel 12:13: "David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” And Nathan said to David, “The Lord also has put away your sin; you shall not die."

There are 2 designs floating in my head:

A wagon-wheel style with no rubber, and a center cast iron attachment point.

Steel-backing plate with a wooden wheel pegged to it, with the end result looking like a modern "deep dish" alloy wheel, except made from wood.

No merc at the moment

How about a modern, safe, welded wheel that has been wood-grained to achieve the desired effect?
