The custom sprocket example is the same thing: a sprocket you hex broached off of McMaster won't work, but this is certainly fine.

When I said that things that are bought shouldn't be posted, I forgot about the fact that pretty much everything is bought. I really meant stuff like gears, sprockets, Skyway wheels, AM wheels, IFI wheels, piles of extruded aluminum, and other extremely common robot parts.
The difference between 188's 2006 robot picture you posted and something like
this is that the paint rollers are a part of the entire assembly that shows us how they are using them.
Also, the rollers are unique and they are something you probably wouldn't expect to see on a robot, but if it is a set of AM omni-wheels, then maybe someone should rethink what they are about to upload.
