Not too sure if I understand your question very well, jtank241, but if you are talking about making a number of similar items such as road wheels, you basically have to come up with the best 'pattern' you can make, and duplicate it at will. This can be achieve either by using an existing wheel from a kit, modifying one from an existing kit, or build one from scratch with plastic card or from metal if you have a lathe.
