Technically you can make a WCD using the KOP but it isn't the most efficient way. The team who made it escapes me but I know there is a photo here on CD.

How they did it was they took the outer most rails in the standard KOP frame and moved them inward so they ran flush with the inside rails. This meant all they had to do was put their KOP bolts through the holes with chain and sprockets and they had a WCD. Cantilevered in all.

This method could make for a great fall project for any team that doesn't want to spend money yet still wants to work towards custom drivebases. Who knows, we might do it this fall just as a learning experience!
