HOLY COW! :eek:

I was about to say, "What on Earth are you doing with all those little sprockets," when I saw the BIG one. I'm putting your robot on my "Can't Wait To See" list right now.

You can't be serious. That sprocket would weigh dozens of pounds....

I'm carefully noting the rest of your sprockets though. Though I wonder what it tells us that we don't already know (swerve drive).

Chris is correct, the 160 weighs dozens of pounds... However the 45 tooth version (not pictured) is even more impressive...

Not to mention the 4.5" shaft it rides on.

I'm waiting for squirrel to sign on and see if he can name what vehicle or mechanism that's actually from lol.

He's way too good- http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/29639

. . . ok my mind is melting . .

is that 1 really big sprocket with several normal sprockets around it . . or one normal sprocket with several baby sprockets . . its like some sort of surrealists take on engineering.


either way super cool baby/jumbo sprocket(s)

Re: pic: Team 1538 Teaser #1
 

Hmm, about 40 of them. Either that's a lot of spares, or a lot of wheels.

I want to see the indent that left on the carpet:yikes:

is the big one for a winch?

Re: pic: Team 1538 Teaser #1
 

Hey Jon, are you making some sort of planetary gear system?

Re: pic: Team 1538 Teaser #1
 

You should use that big gear as a decoration. Or is it just extra weight. No matter what, you piqued my curiosity.

Any chance for a finished product picture now? Pretty please? :)
