Re: pic: Team 60 Wheel Design

My team was looking at wheel designs and I pointed them to 60's. We figured out your design from one of the pictures of the robot, but I wasn't sure how they might be fabricated. I'm not too familiar with lathing, can that lip to hold the belt material cut with a lathe?

Also, in some other thread about your wheels, someone said that you screwed that the belt material was screwed in radially in a few places to help hold it down. I assume you drilled these holes through the rim on the thicker piece.

Finally, what do you use for a hub? Is it bolted around the central hole? What shaft diameter/keyway and length of keyway did you use?

Thanks.
