IMO, just get correctly sized chain and the tensioners won't be needed. Once again, great job! Now let's try and see how you can make this better, since improvement is always fun!
EDIT: Madison, is there any way possible to make the attached file Mac-friendly? I can't seem to open it, and now that I've downloaded it's like waiting for a game hint 4 days before kickoff!

The C-Base makes it impossible to adjust the center-center distance between wheels, so while things are an even number of pitches between wheels, the gearbox isn't an even number of pitches without shimming it upward some. This might be fine, but the tensioners also up to get the chain away from the floor; it isn't always necessary to do that, but I try to do when I can.
What software are you using to to open the STEP file? STEP should be a platform neutral format.
