Re: Need Help With Sheet Metal Designing
In response to roystur. Thanks for the input. We have used separate pieces for the frame for a while now and have not had many problems. If we used a one piece frame, it would be hard to change ( we extended our frame mid-season this year) and I could almost guarantee one of the wheels wouldn't touch the ground.

Edit: Also, the current swerve modules are symmetrical (forgot to make window motors invisible). Adjustment is not an issue, there are 2 plates that we pull apart until the chains are tight. Slots in the frame will handle this issue effectively.
