Definition
Plural of felly; the curved wooden rim segments that make up the wheel of a cart or wagon.
Etymology
From Old English 'felg' meaning rim or edge of a wheel. The word evolved through Middle English 'felly' to describe the outer wooden ring that holds spokes together, with fellies being the standard plural form.
Kelly Says
Before metal rims existed, these wooden segments had to be perfectly curved and fitted together—wheelwrights were master craftspeople who could shape wood so precisely that these curves would hold a wheel together under tremendous stress without nails!
