Timber used in wheel making (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elm

'timber' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in wheel making' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'ELM' is hidden within 'wheel making'.

'used' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for elm that I've seen before include "Source of timber" , "Tree with a Dutch disease" , "Deciduous tree with rough serrated leaves" , "Mel's tree" , "Source of wood" .)
