Re: FRC Team 3408 WCD

Looks pretty good.

A few questions:

1. What is the battery box made of? How is the battery retained vertically?

2. How is the chain tensioned? I don't see any cams on the VersaBlocks, which is what one would normally use in such a drivetrain.

3. How are the axles retained? I can't tell from this picture.

4. How are the bumpers attached? The frame supporting them looks good, but the model doesn't show how the bumpers are attached to it.
