Here are some pictures of the model for a more visual approach. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Just send me a PM asking for the gear ratios for the steering and I'll try to get them to you as quickly as possible.

I have been mesmerized by 16's swerve drive since 2012 when I first saw it. Can I take a look at the CAD, too?
