Re: FRC T-bone-ing and Hexagonal drive
If you're already doing a custom built chain-in-tube WCD (or any other 6WD+ design with all live axles), is it really that much harder to do a hexagon? It looks to me like it's just moving the corner wheels to the inside of the tube/channel and adding some blocks to mount the angled bumpers. Making the bumpers with the odd angles shouldn't be that much more difficult than a rectangle; the hardest part would be cutting and sewing the cloth to give a tight fit.
This is probably not a 50th percentile team issue, but I suspect it's a good bit below 90th.
