I drew up a model similar to your 2008 model. One of the questions I had in doing that are what are the pros and cons of putting the chains on opposite sides of the driven center wheel versus having both on the same side? I would think having them on opposite sides of the center wheel would be easier, but then is there a mechanical reason for having them on the same side.

Looking at this model, why did you go with squares instead of triangles for lightening?
