Hexagon / Octagon frame with Swerve

Hi everyone,

Over the summer I have been designing a swerve module and a chassis frame. I've been seeing all the designs and have learned the benefits of a hexagonal or octagonal chassis as apposed to a square chassis. I was wondering if anyone had experience or pointers on using a combination of a swerve drive and a hex or octagon chassis? Additionally, are there any benefits to using 2"-1" tube to 80-20 in the previously mentioned configuration?

Thanks everyone!

the pdf is of my swerve module. if you guys have any comments on that, that would be great too.
