Re: pic: Sliding Wheel Chain Tensioners

Yea the chasis will flex when you tighten the bolt.. thats what happend to our robot this year. To fix it all we did was just cut aluminum blocks, drill a hole for the bolt to fit in, slide it into the channel of the chasis, and then tighten.

Neat Idea.

Andy Mark Sells something that tightens chains though.
