Even if John didn't say it in his post, there's a lot of merit to doing this.
In 2007 We designed a drive gearbox that was supposed to be able to swap between CIMs and FP with AM planetary. I CADd as we intended to build it, and at a later point when we wanted to move motors around, we found that a CIM wouldnt fit in some places. By putting the CIM in, you're showing that there is enough clearance in all the mounting locations.
Aside from that, they're a great team posting full CAD models of great robots; I'll just say thank you.
