Hmm... Blue wheels on a PINK robot, a Cheesy swerve that RAWC's, and some Cheesy Cookies that are out of this world.

Should be an interesting season, eh? :cool:

Well, 254 seems to be building a drive base for a team that shares their shop...

Correction... they've helped make a few parts for the drivetrain.

Cool. I have a friend who just joined that team. Sounds like a fun program.

Can't wait to see what that RAWC/Poof Leviathan is this year...

How were those machined? Was it an aluminum block milled down?

Maybe it was 1/4in rectangle bar placed in a CNC bender. Either way, those are beautiful pieces.

looks like c-channel or rectangular tubing with the bearing holes milled out.

They were machined from solid.

All that machined out of solid....that's just obscene. They are amazing looking though.

I was convinced they were joking about swerve.

Is this why you went through all of your coolant?

Re: pic: 254/968 Swerve Modules!

these pieces look more like a universal joint than a swerve module to me. I still think 254/968 and swerve are not to be this year.

Re: pic: 254/968 Swerve Modules!

Since they posted a picture I can break my silence. In the Fall, some members of 254 asked me to send them some cross section views of our 2002/2003 swerve modules. Those forks look awefully familiar ...

About the bearing blocks: The swerve forks allow the drive transmission to be remotely located so the bearing blocks could be somewhere else on the robot.

Those forks look sweet.
