You might check with Old Wade House, state historical site in Greenbush, WI
that has a large collection of wagons, etc in its collection and some of
them have probably been restored.

If you want it done professionally you can go to hansenwheel.com. Otherwise,
I would recommend contacting the people at the Circus World Museum. They do
amazing work at restoring wheels. Perhaps they can give you instructions on
how to repair your wheels.

Subject: Fw: Wagon wheel restoration question
Hi everyone - Please share recommendations, if you have them, for this
restoration question. Thanks!
Janet
The Waupaca Historical Society is working on restoring some horse drawn
wagons and railroad baggage cart, but we need to repair and restore the
wagon wheels. Does the Wisconsin Historical Society know of any businesses
that do this type of work? Or do you know of any other museums/contacts that
might be able to help?
Thank you for your help, and have a wonderful holiday season!
