The hex was broached after this picture was taken, we built 4 of them in house (3 Axis CNC), then a sponsor built the other 4 (5 Axis CNC).
And all the Conversational code to build these wheels was hand written, which is pretty cool!

Do you just tread each half and attach them with 2 seams in the tread? Pretty clever for those -hard to replace drivetrains
