Steps To Make A LEGO Ferris Wheel

Step 2: The second step is to make the base by using four Lego bricks and one plate. Then make the axle at the top of the frame with one light grey axle, which is nine studs long and one light grey coloured axle and 7 studs long. Now, connect it with a technic axle connector which is two studs long.
