we didn't put set screws in ours. I think we just set them on the axle and let the near side provide the power to the wheels. I'll take a few closeup of the wheels and hubs tomorrow and let you see what we've done.

This is our first time with Mechanum. Maybe, some folks with more experience can chime in?
