Re: Community/Open Source Chassis Project

Simple sheet metal. drill holes to mount gearboxes to. Cut slits for wheels to come out of bottom. Use box aluminum to outline the perimeter of the bot and to keep it from being too wobbly. This method is the best way (i believe) to build an omni bot.

I will try to put up some of my sketches. I've got loads of great chassis designs and dont have time to build any. So if your really interested in making a new chassis..I mean I've literally got pages and pages of cheap and easily made innovative base/chassis designs.
