Re: pic: Skunkswerve Module Cross Section

We decided in our initial brainstorm that swerve would be the way to go. After that we CADed our brains out and sent out parts to be water jet cut and welded for our frame in week one (Thank you Omax). The modules 4"x4" (1/4 W) was cut into segments and sent to another welder along with the 1/4" al. plate to be welded into the modules initial shape. From there they were taken to a new machining sponsor (Puget Sound Precision) and were machined on their 9 axis CNC mills. We got them back and assembled them during week three and were driving at the end of week 4
