Re: pic: GEAR & CHAIN IN TUBE 8WD

After initially dismissing the idea as "sketchy" because of the integrated gearbox, after looking at the lower custom part count and the resulting reduction in cost, I think this is a great idea for making a custom chassis at a low cost and weight.
I don't like your lightening patterns, but apart from that the design looks great. The dual versagussets in the corners really stand out to me as a feature of 2x2 tubes.
Do you think it's possible to make a shifting version? Can all the gears + sprockets fit?
