Re: paper: 1625 Swerve Through the Ages

We've actually hunted down some 20deg or something bevel gears since then, but the goal of that module was to decrease the number of parts by removing the horizontal axle. It would still be oriented with the support bearing straight up top, but with the wheel running on an angle in relation to the floor.

Not on the top of the list if we do another swerve, but a fun idea to toy with nonetheless
