wooden steering wheel

anyone got any diy info on building a wooden steering wheel out of your exsisting one? i'd like to make an octagon
or something. i thought if i bashed all the plastic off the wire hoop it could be set in a wooden half and then epoxied to the other half and finished... my plastic wheel is all cracked up anyhow

That sounds entirely do-able , making a wooden round one. a bandsaw, scroll or jigsaw and a router, have to make a couple jigs. Tha t or get ahlod of Norm Abrahms,,
