Now that you have a bunch of nice measured templates, you could make one out of wood or plastic now? :)
Not really. A lot of the elements are made out of sandwitched cardboard pieces with glue in-between. Especially the main disc. It is hollow and the border is made of over 40 individual carboard arcs. If I made that out of wood, It would make sense to cut it out of a solid piece from the start.
And then I would probably go for a gear-based transmission or at least a chain for precision.
