How a steering mechanism works! :-) (Dudley)

             
In the diagrams below (especially the second lowest one.)it is illustrated how the steering mechanism(s) work. Firstly when you spin the steering wheel it also spins a rod attached to the wheel. Then in turn the rod turns the other rods attached to the wheels, which turns the wheels.

Also another simpler way of steering is to attach ropes to the axle, like the diagram below but with ropes attached.
