Re: pic: Harbor Freight 8 inch tire on 3d printed hub

We were in a very similar situation, and sorta still are.

I'm currently printing a pair of these hubs at 100% infill on PLA, to see how they hold up. 20 hours to go.

Our current driver is running on AndyMark hubs (was lucky enough to get them in before they went out of stock) and Amazon 200x50mm wheels. We found that, like many have said, the hubs don't line up with the bead. We were able to adapt this by using the metal hub that came with the wheel initially, hacking it up a bit, and epoxy'ing them to the hub.

So far, holding well. Have been aggressively testing it over the rock wall, moat, rough terrain with no noticeable issues.
