How to get wheels in LEGO Fortnite
Before you can begin crafting wheels, you need to collect Flexwood which can be harvested from cacti in the desert biome. Then, take your Flexwood to a Lumber Mill to craft a Flexwood Rod. By doing so, you’ll unlock the wheels blueprint and the recipe will become available in the Toys section of the build menu.
There are two wheels to choose from, either small or or large.
To craft a small wheel, you’ll need:
- One Flexwood Rod
- One Flexwood
To craft a large wheel, you’ll need:
- One Flexwood Rod
- Two Flexwood
However, wheels have a limited use, so you may not be able to create the vehicle of your dreams. Both small and large wheels can only be attached to Dynamic Foundations, also located in the Toys section of the build menu. Once you’ve placed down a Dynamic Foundation, you will be able to attach your wheels to it and hit the road.
Now you know how to craft wheels, getting around your LEGO Fortnite world just got a whole lot quicker.
