2. If you have used mecanum wheels in the past, have you ever created your own?

3. What do you believe is the most challenging aspect concerning the creation of the mecanum wheels?
Thanks Everyone!
Team 2468 has a drill press, band saw and vertical mill. We are currently working on the motors and control software for a table top CNC lathe. We also have a combination metal shear, brake and roller and a belt sander.

We are using mecanums this year for the first time.

I think it would be machining the rollers.
