Connecting a Rubber Band to the Axle - Rubber Band Powered Cars

I often get asked how to connect the rubber band to the axle on a rubber band car so I have just pulled this section out of one of my videos to show the simplest method. Yes in the voice over I did say wrap it round the back wheel, in error, I clearly meant wrap it round the back axle. If you have a question it is probably worth reading this video description first because the answer may already be here.

To find them follow my search guides /watch/wgcHOoOSBecSH or /watch/kRYwkwgU4jZUw or see my playlists page /user/GrandadIsAnOldMan/playlists?flow=grid&view=1 Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap. /user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
