Re: Chain Tensioning Method?

I really liked the chain tensioners that 1625 used on their robot last year. They're great because adjusting the tension is really simple, all you have to do is pivot the little arm that holds the idler sprocket. This worked with their one-chain-per-side configuration.

Here's a picture, and you can see the tensioner right next to the transmission:
