How Do You People Get The So Perfect??? When I Make A Circle, I Use The Goal And Just Trace Around It, Is That What You Do, But With Just More Precision?

Another method is to create all your spokes to the maximum length of a metal bar. When you join all your spokes together, you're left with a perfect circle.

Yes I used to do like that, but it limits the size of the circle to metal bar's max length..
But I found a way of obtaining more "keypoints" with the fact that metal bars duplicates at special points when you draw a long line...
Didn't think of using the portal as model, though...lol...

Has anyone but be noticed that you could use other materials such as rope or cloth for a baseline iwsze then trace around it with metal or rubber and then go back an replace the rope or cloth with your building materials.

this method will give you much more possibilities for different sizes of perfect circles,

I have made some wheels for use by the public and here they are. They can also be found in the building tips section under the name "wheels for use"
