Cooper, that is a fascinating insight. Like I said, this isn't our actual chassis. We're using the aluminum VersaBlocks for the outside wheels on our chassis, but we're using a plastic bearing block for the middle wheel to get the 96 tooth spacing from two simple clamping gearboxes. I'll definitely have the students abuse the chassis a bit to see if we need to do something about the plastic block for the middle wheel. If it's too fragile, I'll have to mill down a versablock to get the same spacing.
