Thanks Train Nut and Chris. I still don't see how this mechanism turns the center wheel, but, I will try to assemble it as your pics show.
Okay, worked on it. The problem with mine, is that piece that is pegged inside of the piece holding Bugs. Elmer has his own peg on the opposite side. That flange in Chris's first and fourth pics in his first post looks like the part with the extension running down is alternately pushed by the plastic bob on the axle. Is that what you are seeing? Is that what drives the center wheel?
